Comprehensive Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Elimination
Safeguard your residence by eliminating soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. You'll lower chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and ensure combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Perform flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, operating top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to locate 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 clear. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and stable draft for dependable operation.
Comprehensive Safety Evaluations and Inspections
Before starting your first fire of the season, book a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to ensure the here safety and code compliance of your chimney and fireplace system. A Level I inspection checks standard safety requirements, and Level II incorporates comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
As part of our evaluation, we record the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and termination heights, and draft performance. We perform ventilation testing to ensure adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our safety checklist covers the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll get a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we promptly execute targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration to reestablish structural stability and safe airflow.

Our team improves smoke chambers through professional parging for enhanced airflow.

Solving Smoke, Draft, and Odor Issues
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors typically stem 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 address restrictions, remove creosote, and set balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. We provide optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to stop smoke backdrafts. We address leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
To manage odors, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and specify appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. In locations with strong winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We'll validate results using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
