Comprehensive Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Elimination
Secure your residence by clearing soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. This will decrease chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and maintain combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Perform flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Clean 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 free of debris. Discard debris safely in metal containers. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and reliable draft for reliable operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Before starting your first fire of the season, book a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to ensure the proper condition and compliance of your heating system. A Level I inspection checks standard safety requirements, and Level II incorporates video scanning of flues and accessible areas. A Level III assessment examines concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
During your assessment, we document the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and termination heights, and draft performance. We conduct ventilation testing to ensure appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our inspection includes firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll get a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we promptly execute targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We evaluate deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, then execute repairs meeting all codes. You receive professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
For damaged liners due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, 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. Our team improves smoke chambers using specialized parging techniques to improve draft efficiency. Our masonry restoration includes replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and stone sealing to prevent dampness and salt intrusion. Every repair is thoroughly documented, includes pressure testing where needed, and is fully warrantied.
Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades
Transform to a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, premium-performance inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll improve operation, reduce emissions, and meet current WA codes. We assess hearth integrity, chimney capacity, and clearances, then recommend energy efficient inserts tailored to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units deliver airtight operation, improved heat transfer, and consistent airflow management.
Our team replaces worn dampers with high-performance sealing mechanisms, install insulated stainless liners as needed, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With smart fireplace controls, you can automate ignition, set temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and add safety lockouts. We commission every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Fixing Smoke, Draft, and Odor Issues
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors typically stem 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, liner continuity, and termination height.
We fix restrictions, remove creosote, and set proper air circulation between your firebox, fresh air intake, and exhaust system. You'll get optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to eliminate smoke spillage. We repair ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
For odor control, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and specify dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. In windy zones, we add baffled caps. We verify our work with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
