Expert Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Removal
Safeguard your residence by eliminating soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. You'll lower chimney temperatures, improve draft, and keep combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Conduct flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, operating top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to locate glazed deposits that demand mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. website Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and consistent draft for dependable operation.
Comprehensive Safety Evaluations and Inspections
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, book a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to verify that your chimney and fireplace meet your fireplace and chimney setup. Level I examines clearances and general condition, and Level II incorporates detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
Throughout our inspection, we record liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and proper termination and draft levels. We conduct ventilation testing to ensure adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our comprehensive review examines firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll receive a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we swiftly proceed with specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We evaluate crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then execute repairs meeting all codes. We provide precise tuckpointing, crown rebuilding with proper drip edges, and cap installations that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
For damaged liners through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, our team implements high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions custom-fitted to the BTU rating and elevation of your unit, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers using specialized parging techniques for enhanced airflow. We provide comprehensive masonry work including brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and waterproofing stone against water and salt damage. All restoration work is fully documented, undergoes pressure testing as required, and is fully warrantied.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Enhance your space with a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, high‑efficiency inserts, and intelligent updates. You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and comply with WA codes. We evaluate fireplace condition, ventilation capacity, and safety distances, then recommend optimized inserts tailored to your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units provide controlled burning, improved heat transfer, and dependable ventilation control.
Our team replaces worn dampers with high-performance sealing mechanisms, install insulated stainless liners when required, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can control ignition, set temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We finalize every upgrade with thorough testing and documentation for permits and warranties.
Fixing Smoke, Draft, and Odor Issues
Once inserts and controls have been upgraded, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells typically stem from improper pressure, clogged flues, or misaligned damper and cap configurations. We diagnose stack effect, measure draft with a manometer, and verify cross-sectional area, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.
We fix blockages, clean creosote buildup, and adjust balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. You'll receive optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to stop smoke backdrafts. We address leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
For odor control, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and specify proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. In windy zones, we incorporate specialized baffled caps. We verify our work with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
