Professional Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Cleaning
Secure your residence by removing soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. You will reduce chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and keep combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, appropriate 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. 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 confirm the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and stable draft for dependable operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Before using your fireplace this season, schedule a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to verify the safety and code compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. The initial Level I assessment reviews standard safety requirements, while Level II adds comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. A Level III assessment examines concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
Throughout our inspection, we record liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and termination heights, and draft performance. We run ventilation testing to verify proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our safety checklist covers the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll obtain a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
When structural problems, read more deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we quickly implement focused chimney rehabilitation, relining, and masonry fixes that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We assess deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, then execute repairs meeting all codes. We provide expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement that protect flue ventilation and shed water.
For damaged liners through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, we expertly fit stainless steel or ceramic relining systems custom-fitted to your appliance's BTU output and height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers with careful parging application for enhanced airflow. Our masonry services encompass brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and waterproofing stone against dampness and salt intrusion. Every repair is thoroughly documented, includes pressure testing where needed, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Fireplace Upgrades, Inserts, and Modernization
Enhance your space with a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, high‑efficiency inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and comply with WA codes. We examine hearth integrity, flue capabilities, and spacing requirements, then suggest high-performance inserts sized for your home's load, fuel type, and venting path. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units provide sealed combustion, improved heat transfer, and consistent airflow management.
Our team replaces worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, incorporate insulated stainless liners where necessary, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With smart fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, configure temperature limits, implement remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We finalize every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and documentation for permits and warranties.
Solving Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors usually trace to negative pressure, blocked flues, or incorrect damper and cap geometry. We diagnose stack effect, measure draft with a manometer, and verify cross-sectional area, along with liner condition and proper termination elevation.
We resolve obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize 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 correct ash dump leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
For odor control, we implement void sealing and improve air circulation and specify proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. In locations with strong winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We confirm effectiveness with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
