Complete Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Elimination
Protect your residence by eliminating soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. This will decrease chimney temperatures, improve draft, and keep combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Execute flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to identify 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. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and consistent draft for reliable operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Before using your fireplace this season, arrange a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to ensure that your chimney and fireplace meet your chimney and fireplace system. A Level I inspection checks clearances and general condition, and Level II incorporates comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
Throughout our inspection, we document liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and termination heights, and draft performance. We conduct ventilation testing to confirm appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our comprehensive review examines firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll obtain a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements 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 targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We examine spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, then implement code-compliant solutions. You get 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 professionally install durable stainless or ceramic relining options custom-fitted to the BTU rating and elevation of your unit, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers through professional parging for enhanced airflow. Our masonry services encompass brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and protective stone sealing to block dampness and salt intrusion. We maintain detailed records of all repairs, pressure-tested when necessary, and is fully warrantied.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Transform to a more efficient, safer, and cleaner hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, energy-efficient inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll improve operation, decrease pollutants, and comply with WA codes. We assess fireplace condition, ventilation capacity, and clearances, then propose high-performance inserts tailored to your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems offer sealed combustion, enhanced thermal efficiency, and dependable ventilation control.
We install new worn dampers with high-performance sealing mechanisms, add insulated stainless liners as needed, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, set temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and add safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Resolving Draft, Odor, and Smoke Problems
Once inserts and controls have been upgraded, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors commonly result from pressure issues, flue blockages, or poor damper and cap setup. We diagnose stack effect, measure draft with a manometer, and verify cross-sectional area, along with liner condition and proper termination elevation.
We fix restrictions, remove creosote, and set proper air circulation between your firebox, fresh air intake, and exhaust system. We provide optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to prevent back-puffing. We repair ash dump leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
For odor control, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and recommend proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. In locations with strong winds, we incorporate specialized baffled caps. We'll validate results through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
