Professional Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Cleaning
Secure your home by removing soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. This will reduce chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and keep combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Execute flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Conduct creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and confirm the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Discard debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and consistent draft for dependable operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, book a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to confirm the proper condition and compliance of your heating system. Level I examines clearances and general condition, while Level II adds comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
Throughout our inspection, we record the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and termination heights, and draft performance. We conduct ventilation testing to verify appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our comprehensive review examines firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll obtain a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we promptly execute targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We examine 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 protect flue ventilation and shed water.
For damaged liners due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, our team implements stainless steel or ceramic relining systems perfectly sized to match your unit's heat output and chimney height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance with careful parging application for enhanced airflow. Our masonry services encompass brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and protective stone sealing to block dampness and salt intrusion. Every repair is thoroughly documented, pressure-tested when necessary, and includes warranty coverage.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Transition to a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, high‑efficiency inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll improve operation, decrease pollutants, and meet current WA codes. We assess firebox condition, flue capabilities, and spacing requirements, then recommend energy efficient inserts matched to your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units provide airtight operation, enhanced thermal efficiency, and consistent airflow management.
Our team replaces worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, incorporate insulated stainless liners when required, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can automate ignition, establish temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and documentation for permits and warranties.
Addressing Smoke, Draft, and Odor Issues
Once inserts and controls have been upgraded, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells commonly result from pressure issues, flue blockages, or poor damper and cap setup. We diagnose stack effect, measure draft with a manometer, and verify cross-sectional area, liner continuity, and termination height.
We fix restrictions, remove creosote, and set airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. You'll get precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to eliminate smoke spillage. We correct leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and specify dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. For areas with high winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We confirm effectiveness through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
