Expert Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Elimination
Protect your property by clearing soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. You'll decrease chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and keep combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Execute flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Remove debris from the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and reliable draft for dependable operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Before starting your first fire of the season, schedule a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to confirm the proper condition and compliance of your chimney and fireplace system. Level I examines basic conditions and clearances, while Level II adds detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. A Level III assessment examines hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
During your assessment, we examine the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and proper termination and draft levels. We perform ventilation testing to verify adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our safety checklist covers firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll obtain a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we swiftly proceed with specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We examine crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then execute repairs meeting all codes. You get precise tuckpointing, crown rebuilding with proper drip edges, and cap installations that protect flue ventilation and shed water.
For damaged liners due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, we expertly fit high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions custom-fitted to your appliance's BTU output and height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers through professional parging to improve draft efficiency. Our masonry restoration includes brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and stone sealing to prevent moisture and salt infiltration. We maintain detailed records of all repairs, includes pressure testing where needed, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options

You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and comply with WA codes. We examine firebox condition, flue capabilities, and clearances, then recommend high-performance inserts sized for your home's load, fuel type, and venting path. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts provide controlled burning, improved heat transfer, and dependable ventilation control.
We replace worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, incorporate insulated stainless liners where necessary, and verify hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, set temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and include safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with combustion checks and documentation for permits and warranties.
Fixing Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells usually trace to pressure issues, flue blockages, or poor damper and cap setup. We diagnose stack effect, measure draft with a manometer, and verify cross-sectional area, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.
We fix restrictions, remove creosote, and set proper air circulation between your firebox, fresh air intake, and exhaust system. You'll get optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to prevent back-puffing. We address ash dump leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we implement void sealing and improve air circulation and require proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. In locations with strong winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We verify our work through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
