Complete Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Removal
Secure your home by clearing soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. You will lower chimney temperatures, improve draft, and keep combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Conduct flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to contain 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 verify the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and consistent draft for reliable operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, book a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to confirm that your chimney and fireplace meet your heating system. A Level I inspection checks clearances and general condition, and Level II incorporates comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. A Level III assessment examines concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
Throughout our inspection, we record the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and termination heights, and draft performance. We perform ventilation testing to confirm appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our inspection includes damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll receive a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we swiftly proceed with focused chimney rehabilitation, relining, and masonry fixes to reestablish structural stability and safe airflow. We examine deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, then execute repairs meeting all codes. You receive expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
If your chimney liner is compromised through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, we expertly fit durable stainless or ceramic relining options perfectly sized to match your unit's heat output and chimney height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance using specialized parging techniques to achieve smoother flow. Our masonry restoration includes replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and protective stone sealing to block moisture and salt infiltration.

Resolving Smoke, Draft, and Odor Issues
After upgrading inserts and controls, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors typically stem 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, liner continuity, and termination height.
We resolve obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. You'll receive optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to eliminate smoke spillage. We repair ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
To control unwanted smells, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and specify appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. For areas with high winds, we add baffled caps. We verify our work with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
