Comprehensive Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Cleaning
Secure your residence by clearing soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. This will decrease chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and ensure combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Conduct flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Conduct creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and reliable draft for safe operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, book a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to ensure the safety and code compliance of your heating system. Level I examines standard safety requirements, and Level II adds 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 record the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and draft performance and termination heights. We conduct ventilation testing to confirm appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our comprehensive review examines the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll receive a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we swiftly proceed with focused chimney rehabilitation, relining, and masonry fixes that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We evaluate deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, then execute repairs meeting all codes. We provide 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 from breaks, improper dimensions, or rust, we expertly fit high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions specifically dimensioned for your appliance's BTU output and height, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. Our team improves smoke chambers using specialized parging techniques to improve draft efficiency. Our masonry services encompass brick repairs, lintel strengthening and stone sealing to prevent water and salt damage. Every repair is thoroughly documented, includes pressure testing where needed, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Transition to a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, high‑efficiency inserts, and smart modernization. You'll boost performance, lower environmental impact, and comply with WA codes. We examine firebox condition, chimney capacity, and safety distances, then recommend optimized inserts sized for your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems provide controlled burning, better heat distribution, and reliable draft control.
We replace worn dampers with premium sealing solutions, incorporate insulated stainless liners as needed, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With smart fireplace controls, you can automate ignition, configure temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and add safety lockouts. We commission every upgrade with thorough testing and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Fixing Draft, Odor, and Smoke Problems
After upgrading inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors commonly result from improper pressure, clogged flues, or misaligned damper and cap configurations. We assess stack effect, check draft levels using manometers, and examine cross-sectional measurements, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.
We fix restrictions, remove creosote, and set 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 leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
For odor control, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and specify dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. In locations with strong winds, we add baffled caps. We'll validate results using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
