Comprehensive Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Elimination
Secure your residence by removing soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. You will lower chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and ensure combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Execute flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, operating top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that demand mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Discard debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and reliable draft for reliable operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, book a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to ensure the proper condition and compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. Level I examines standard safety requirements, while Level II includes comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. A Level III assessment examines hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
Throughout our inspection, we examine liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and draft performance and termination heights. We run ventilation testing to confirm appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our comprehensive review examines the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll obtain a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we promptly execute specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We assess 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 to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
If your chimney liner is compromised due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, our team implements stainless steel or ceramic relining systems specifically dimensioned for your appliance's BTU output and height, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers using specialized parging techniques to improve draft efficiency. Our masonry restoration includes brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and stone sealing to prevent 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
Transition to a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, premium-performance inserts, and smart modernization. You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and meet current WA codes. We examine firebox condition, ventilation capacity, and safety distances, then propose high-performance inserts sized for your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts deliver airtight operation, enhanced thermal efficiency, and consistent airflow management.
Our team replaces worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, add 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, set temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We commission every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and paperwork for permits and warranties.
Resolving Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Once inserts and controls have been upgraded, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells typically stem from improper pressure, clogged flues, or misaligned damper and cap configurations. Our team evaluates stack effect, uses manometers for draft measurement, and confirms cross-sectional dimensions, along with liner condition and proper termination elevation.
We address obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. You'll receive tuned combustion air, calibrated dampers, and tight gasketing to eliminate smoke spillage. We address leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
For odor control, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and recommend appropriate fuel types check here and masonry curing. For areas with high winds, we add baffled caps. We'll validate results through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
