Comprehensive Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Removal
Secure your property by clearing soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. You'll decrease chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and keep combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Execute flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that demand mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and confirm the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and reliable draft for dependable operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Before starting your first fire of the season, schedule a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to verify the safety and code compliance of your chimney and fireplace system. The initial Level I assessment reviews standard safety requirements, while Level II includes detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. Level III is necessary for concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
Throughout our inspection, we examine 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 receive a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we quickly implement specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We evaluate spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, before applying code-approved repairs. You get professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
If your chimney liner is compromised through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, our team implements 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 for enhanced airflow. We provide comprehensive masonry work including brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and protective stone sealing to block dampness and salt intrusion. Every repair is thoroughly documented, includes here pressure testing where needed, and includes warranty coverage.

Addressing Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells usually trace to pressure issues, flue blockages, or poor damper and cap setup. Our team evaluates stack effect, uses manometers for draft measurement, and confirms cross-sectional dimensions, liner continuity, and termination height.
We address restrictions, remove creosote, and set proper air circulation between your firebox, fresh air intake, and exhaust system. You'll receive optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to stop smoke backdrafts. 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 recommend dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. In windy zones, we add baffled caps. We confirm effectiveness using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
