Comprehensive Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Removal
Protect your property by removing soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. You'll reduce chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and ensure combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Execute flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Remove debris from the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and stable draft for reliable operation.
Comprehensive Safety Evaluations and Inspections
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, schedule a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to confirm the proper condition and compliance of your heating system. A Level I inspection checks basic conditions and clearances, while Level II includes video scanning of flues and accessible areas. Level III is necessary for hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
During your assessment, we document the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and draft performance and termination heights. We run ventilation testing to ensure proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our comprehensive review examines firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll receive a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we promptly execute specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We examine spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, then execute repairs meeting all codes. You receive expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
If your chimney liner is compromised from breaks, improper dimensions, or rust, we professionally install high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions specifically dimensioned for your appliance's BTU output and height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance through professional parging for enhanced airflow. Our masonry restoration includes replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and stone sealing to prevent water and salt damage. All restoration work is fully documented, includes pressure testing where needed, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades
Enhance your space with a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, high‑efficiency inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and satisfy WA codes. We assess firebox condition, ventilation capacity, and spacing requirements, then suggest energy efficient inserts tailored to your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems deliver airtight operation, improved heat transfer, and reliable draft control.
We replace worn dampers with premium sealing solutions, add insulated stainless liners as needed, and verify hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, establish temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and include safety lockouts. We commission every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and paperwork for permits and warranties.
Solving Smoke, Draft, and Odor Issues
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors commonly result 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 fix blockages, clean creosote buildup, and adjust balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. We provide precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to prevent back-puffing. We correct ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
To manage odors, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and require appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. In locations with strong winds, we add baffled caps. We'll validate results with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
