Comprehensive Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Elimination
Safeguard your home by eliminating soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. You will lower chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and ensure combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Perform flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Remove debris from the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and reliable draft for safe operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, schedule a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to ensure the proper condition and compliance of your heating system. Level I examines clearances and general condition, and Level II includes comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
As part of our evaluation, we document liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and proper termination and draft levels. We conduct ventilation testing to confirm proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our safety checklist covers firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll get a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we swiftly proceed with targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We evaluate crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then execute repairs meeting all codes. You receive professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting that protect flue ventilation and shed water.
When your liner shows signs of damage from breaks, improper dimensions, or rust, our team implements durable stainless or ceramic relining options custom-fitted to your appliance's BTU output and height, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers with careful parging application to improve draft efficiency. We provide comprehensive masonry work including brick repairs, lintel strengthening and stone sealing to prevent water and salt damage. We maintain detailed records of all repairs, pressure-tested when necessary, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Transition to a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, energy-efficient inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and meet current WA codes. We assess fireplace condition, flue capabilities, and clearances, then suggest energy efficient inserts tailored to your home's load, fuel type, and venting path. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units deliver airtight operation, enhanced thermal efficiency, and reliable draft control.
We install new worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, incorporate insulated stainless liners when required, and verify hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, configure temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We commission every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and documentation for permits and warranties.
Fixing Draft, Odor, and Smoke Problems
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors usually trace to 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 restrictions, remove creosote, and set airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. We provide precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to stop smoke backdrafts. 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 recommend dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. In locations with strong winds, we incorporate specialized baffled caps. We confirm effectiveness using safety protocols including smoke testing and website carbon monoxide monitoring.
