Professional Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Cleaning
Safeguard your property by clearing soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. You'll reduce chimney temperatures, improve draft, and ensure combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Execute flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Conduct creosote testing to locate glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and consistent draft for safe operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, schedule a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to ensure the safety and code compliance of your heating system. The initial Level I assessment reviews clearances and general condition, and Level II adds video scanning of flues and accessible areas. Level III is necessary for hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
As part of our evaluation, we examine the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and termination heights, and draft performance. We conduct ventilation testing to confirm proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our inspection includes the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll obtain a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we swiftly proceed with focused chimney rehabilitation, relining, and masonry fixes that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We assess crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then execute repairs meeting all codes. You receive professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
If your chimney liner is compromised from breaks, improper dimensions, or rust, we expertly fit 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 optimize smoke chamber performance through professional parging to achieve smoother flow. Our masonry services encompass brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and waterproofing stone against moisture and salt infiltration. All restoration work is fully documented, pressure-tested when necessary, and includes warranty coverage.
Fireplace Upgrades, Inserts, and Modernization

You'll improve operation, reduce emissions, and comply with WA codes. We evaluate fireplace condition, flue capabilities, and safety distances, then propose high-performance inserts tailored to your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts deliver airtight operation, better heat distribution, and dependable ventilation control.

Addressing Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors 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, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.
We resolve blockages, clean creosote buildup, and adjust balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. You'll get precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to eliminate smoke spillage. We correct 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 require appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. In windy zones, we install wind-baffling caps. We'll validate results through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
