Comprehensive Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Cleaning
Secure your home by removing soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. You will decrease chimney temperatures, improve draft, and keep combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Conduct flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Conduct creosote testing to locate glazed deposits that demand mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and stable draft for safe operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, book a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to verify that your chimney and fireplace meet your chimney and fireplace system. A Level I inspection checks standard safety requirements, whereas Level II incorporates comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. Level III is necessary for hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
During your assessment, we record liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and proper termination and draft levels. We run ventilation testing to confirm proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our inspection includes the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll get a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we quickly implement specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We examine deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, then implement code-compliant solutions. We provide expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
When your liner shows signs of damage due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, we expertly fit high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions perfectly sized to match your appliance's BTU output and height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers through professional parging to achieve smoother flow. Our masonry restoration includes brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and protective stone sealing to block moisture and salt infiltration. Every repair is thoroughly documented, includes pressure testing where needed, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades
Upgrade to a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, energy-efficient inserts, and intelligent updates. You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and comply with WA codes. We examine hearth integrity, flue capabilities, and spacing requirements, then recommend energy efficient inserts matched to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems deliver controlled burning, better heat distribution, and dependable ventilation control.
We replace worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, add insulated stainless liners when required, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With smart fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, establish temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We finalize every upgrade with combustion checks and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Resolving Smoke, Draft, and Odor Issues
After upgrading inserts and controls, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors commonly result from negative pressure, blocked flues, or incorrect damper and cap geometry. We assess stack effect, check draft levels using manometers, and examine cross-sectional measurements, along with liner condition and proper termination elevation.
We fix obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. We provide 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.
To control unwanted smells, we implement void sealing and improve air circulation and specify proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. In locations with strong winds, we incorporate specialized baffled caps. We verify our work using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
