Comprehensive Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Elimination
Safeguard your home by clearing soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. You'll lower chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and maintain combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Execute flue brushing here with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and reliable draft for safe operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Before starting your first fire of the season, arrange a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to ensure the safety and code compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. The initial Level I assessment reviews standard safety requirements, while Level II incorporates video scanning of flues and accessible areas. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
During your assessment, we document the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and termination heights, and draft performance. We perform ventilation testing to verify adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our safety checklist covers the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll get a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions
When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we quickly implement focused chimney rehabilitation, relining, and masonry fixes to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We examine deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, then execute repairs meeting all codes. We provide precise tuckpointing, crown rebuilding with proper drip edges, and cap installations that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
If your chimney liner is compromised due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, we expertly fit high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions perfectly sized to match your unit's heat output and chimney height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance using specialized parging techniques to achieve smoother flow. Our masonry restoration includes brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and protective stone sealing to block dampness and salt intrusion. All restoration work is fully documented, pressure-tested when necessary, and includes warranty coverage.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Upgrade to a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, energy-efficient inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and satisfy WA codes. We assess firebox condition, chimney capacity, and spacing requirements, then suggest optimized inserts matched to your home's load, fuel type, and venting path. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units offer controlled burning, improved heat transfer, and reliable draft control.
We replace worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, incorporate insulated stainless liners when required, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, set temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and include safety lockouts. We commission every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and documentation for permits and warranties.
Solving Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. 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, liner continuity, and termination height.
We address blockages, clean creosote buildup, and adjust proper air circulation between your firebox, fresh air intake, and exhaust system. We provide precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to prevent back-puffing. We repair ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
To control unwanted smells, we implement void sealing and improve air circulation and specify proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. For areas with high winds, we add baffled caps. We'll validate results using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
