Comprehensive Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Removal
Safeguard your residence by removing soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. You'll decrease chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and ensure combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Conduct flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Conduct creosote testing to locate glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Remove debris from 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 verify effective removal and stable draft for safe operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, book a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to verify the safety and code compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. Level I examines standard safety requirements, and Level II includes video scanning of flues and accessible areas. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
Throughout our inspection, we examine liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and proper termination and draft levels. We run ventilation testing to verify proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our inspection includes the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll receive a comprehensive assessment with images 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 specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work to reestablish structural stability and safe airflow. We assess crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then execute repairs meeting all codes. You receive expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement that protect flue ventilation and shed water.
When your liner shows signs of damage due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, we professionally install high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions perfectly sized to match your unit's heat output and chimney height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance through professional parging for enhanced airflow. Our masonry services encompass replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and protective stone sealing to block dampness and salt intrusion. Every repair is thoroughly documented, pressure-tested when necessary, and is fully warrantied.
Fireplace Upgrades, Inserts, and Modernization
Transition to a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, high‑efficiency inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll boost performance, lower environmental impact, and satisfy WA codes. We evaluate hearth integrity, chimney capacity, and clearances, then recommend high-performance inserts tailored to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts offer controlled burning, improved heat transfer, and reliable draft control.
We install new worn dampers with premium sealing solutions, install insulated stainless liners where necessary, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can streamline 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.
Solving Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
After upgrading inserts and controls, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors typically stem from pressure issues, flue blockages, or poor damper and cap setup. website Our team evaluates stack effect, uses manometers for draft measurement, and confirms cross-sectional dimensions, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.
We fix blockages, clean creosote buildup, and adjust balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. We provide tuned combustion air, calibrated dampers, and tight gasketing to prevent back-puffing. We repair ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
For odor control, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and recommend appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. For areas with high winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We'll validate results with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
