Comprehensive Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Removal
Protect your home by clearing soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. You will decrease chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and ensure combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Perform flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to locate glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Discard debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and consistent draft for safe operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, schedule a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to ensure that your chimney and fireplace meet your fireplace and chimney setup. A Level I inspection checks standard safety requirements, and Level II includes detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. Level III is necessary for hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
Throughout our inspection, we document the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and termination heights, and draft performance. We perform ventilation testing to confirm appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our comprehensive review examines the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll obtain a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we quickly implement targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We examine crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then implement code-compliant solutions. We provide expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement that protect flue ventilation and shed water.
When your liner shows signs of damage due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, our team implements stainless steel or ceramic relining systems custom-fitted to your unit's heat output and chimney height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers with careful parging application to achieve smoother flow. We provide comprehensive masonry work including brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and waterproofing stone against water and salt damage. We maintain detailed records of all repairs, undergoes pressure testing as required, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades
Enhance your space with a more efficient, safer, and cleaner hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, premium-performance inserts, and intelligent updates. You'll boost performance, lower environmental impact, and meet current WA codes. We evaluate firebox condition, chimney capacity, and safety distances, then propose optimized inserts tailored to your home's load, fuel type, and venting path. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts provide sealed combustion, improved heat transfer, and reliable draft control.
We install new worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, incorporate insulated stainless liners where necessary, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can automate ignition, establish temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and include safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with thorough testing and documentation for permits and warranties.
Solving Draft, Odor, and Smoke Problems
Once inserts and controls have been upgraded, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors typically stem from improper pressure, clogged flues, or misaligned damper and cap configurations. We assess stack effect, check draft levels using manometers, and examine cross-sectional measurements, along with liner condition and proper termination elevation.
We address restrictions, remove creosote, and set proper air circulation between your firebox, fresh air intake, and exhaust system. You'll get tuned combustion air, calibrated dampers, and tight gasketing to stop smoke backdrafts. We repair ash dump leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
For odor control, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and specify appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. For areas with high winds, we add baffled caps. We'll validate results with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
