Expert Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Cleaning

Protect your residence by clearing soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. This will reduce chimney temperatures, improve draft, and maintain combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Perform flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and reliable draft for safe operation.

Comprehensive Safety Evaluations and Inspections

Before starting your first fire of the season, arrange a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to ensure the proper condition and compliance of your heating system. A Level I inspection checks clearances and general condition, whereas Level II includes video scanning of flues and accessible areas. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.

Throughout our inspection, we document liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and termination heights, and draft performance. We perform ventilation testing to confirm appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our inspection includes the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll obtain a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.

Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work

When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we swiftly proceed with specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We examine 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.

If your chimney liner is compromised due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, we expertly fit stainless steel or ceramic relining systems perfectly sized to match your unit's heat output and chimney height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers using specialized parging techniques for enhanced airflow. Our masonry services encompass brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and waterproofing stone against dampness and salt intrusion.

Fixing Draft, Odor, and Smoke Problems

After upgrading inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells commonly result from negative pressure, blocked flues, or incorrect damper and cap geometry. We diagnose stack effect, measure draft with a manometer, and verify cross-sectional area, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.

We fix blockages, clean creosote buildup, and adjust airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. We provide optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to eliminate smoke spillage. We address ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.

To manage odors, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and recommend appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. In locations with strong winds, we add baffled caps. We confirm effectiveness with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
