Comprehensive Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Removal
Secure your residence by eliminating soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. You'll decrease chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and maintain combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Execute flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Remove debris from the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Discard debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and consistent draft for reliable operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, arrange a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to ensure the proper condition and compliance of your heating system. Level I examines standard safety requirements, while Level II includes comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. Level III is necessary for hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
During your assessment, we record the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and termination heights, and draft performance. We perform ventilation testing to ensure proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our safety checklist covers firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll get a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we quickly implement focused chimney rehabilitation, relining, and masonry fixes to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We assess spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, then execute repairs meeting all codes. You get professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting that protect flue ventilation and shed water.
For damaged liners through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, 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 optimize smoke chamber performance with careful parging application to achieve smoother flow. Our masonry restoration includes replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and stone sealing to prevent moisture and salt infiltration. Every repair is thoroughly documented, undergoes pressure testing as required, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Upgrade to a more efficient, safer, and cleaner hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, energy-efficient inserts, and smart modernization. You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and satisfy WA codes. We examine hearth integrity, chimney capacity, and clearances, then propose high-performance inserts matched to your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units offer controlled burning, enhanced thermal efficiency, and consistent airflow management.
We replace worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, install insulated stainless liners where necessary, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, establish temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and add safety lockouts. We finalize every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Solving Draft, Odor, and Smoke Problems
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors commonly result 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, liner continuity, and termination height.
We resolve restrictions, remove creosote, and set airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. You'll get tuned combustion air, calibrated dampers, and tight gasketing to eliminate smoke spillage. We address leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and require dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. In windy zones, we incorporate specialized baffled caps. We'll validate results through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
