Expert Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Removal
Secure your property by clearing soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. This will reduce chimney temperatures, improve draft, and maintain combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Perform flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, operating top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to locate glazed deposits that demand mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and confirm the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and consistent draft for safe operation.
Comprehensive Safety Evaluations and Inspections
Before using your fireplace this season, arrange a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to ensure the safety and code compliance of your heating system. A Level I inspection checks clearances and general condition, whereas 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 conduct ventilation testing to confirm adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our comprehensive review examines damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll obtain a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we promptly execute targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration to reestablish structural stability and safe airflow. We evaluate deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, before applying code-approved repairs. We provide professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
When your liner shows signs of damage 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, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. Our team improves smoke chambers using specialized parging techniques to achieve smoother flow. Our masonry restoration includes brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and protective stone sealing to block moisture and salt infiltration. All restoration work is fully documented, undergoes pressure testing as required, and includes warranty coverage.
Fireplace Upgrades, Inserts, and Modernization
Transition to a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, premium-performance inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll boost performance, decrease pollutants, and meet current WA codes. We assess firebox condition, ventilation capacity, and safety distances, then suggest energy efficient inserts tailored to your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems offer controlled burning, improved heat transfer, and reliable draft control.
We install new worn dampers with high-performance sealing mechanisms, install insulated stainless liners where necessary, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can automate ignition, set temperature limits, implement remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with thorough testing and documentation for permits and warranties.
Fixing Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Once inserts and controls have been upgraded, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors commonly result from negative pressure, blocked flues, or incorrect damper and cap geometry. Our team evaluates stack effect, uses manometers for draft measurement, and confirms cross-sectional dimensions, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.
We resolve restrictions, remove creosote, and set airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. You'll receive tuned combustion air, calibrated dampers, and tight gasketing to eliminate smoke spillage. We address ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
To manage odors, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and recommend proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. In windy zones, we install wind-baffling caps. We'll validate results with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
