Professional Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Cleaning
Secure your home by eliminating soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. check here This will lower chimney temperatures, improve draft, and keep combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Perform flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that demand mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Discard debris safely in metal containers. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and consistent draft for dependable operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Before starting your first fire of the season, schedule a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to verify the proper condition and compliance of your heating system. A Level I inspection checks basic conditions and clearances, and Level II incorporates video scanning of flues and accessible areas. Level III is necessary for hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
During your assessment, we record the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and termination heights, and draft performance. We run ventilation testing to verify proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our safety checklist covers damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll receive a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we quickly implement specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work to reestablish structural stability and safe airflow. We examine spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, then implement code-compliant solutions. You receive precise tuckpointing, crown rebuilding with proper drip edges, and cap installations to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
For damaged liners from breaks, improper dimensions, or rust, we expertly fit stainless steel or ceramic relining systems perfectly sized to match your unit's heat output and chimney height, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance using specialized parging techniques to improve draft efficiency. Our masonry restoration includes replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and protective stone sealing to block water and salt damage. Every repair is thoroughly documented, undergoes pressure testing as required, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Fireplace Upgrades, Inserts, and Modernization
Enhance your space with a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, energy-efficient inserts, and smart modernization. You'll improve operation, reduce emissions, and comply with WA codes. We assess hearth integrity, ventilation capacity, and spacing requirements, then recommend optimized inserts tailored to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units offer airtight operation, better heat distribution, and consistent airflow management.
We install new worn dampers with premium sealing solutions, add insulated stainless liners when required, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, establish temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and include safety lockouts. We finalize every upgrade with thorough testing and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Addressing Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells usually trace to 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 resolve blockages, clean creosote buildup, and adjust balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. You'll get 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 manage odors, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and require proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. For areas with high winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We confirm effectiveness through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
