Complete Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Removal
Secure your property by clearing soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. This will lower chimney temperatures, improve draft, and maintain combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Conduct flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to locate 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 unobstructed. Discard debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and stable draft for dependable operation.
Comprehensive Safety Evaluations and Inspections
Before starting your first fire of the season, arrange a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to verify the safety and code compliance of your heating system. Level I examines standard safety requirements, and Level II incorporates comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
As part of our evaluation, we examine the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and termination heights, and draft performance. We conduct ventilation testing to ensure appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our inspection includes damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll receive a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we swiftly proceed with targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration to reestablish structural stability and safe airflow. We examine deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, before applying code-approved repairs.

When your liner shows signs of damage from breaks, improper dimensions, or rust, we professionally install stainless steel or ceramic relining systems specifically dimensioned for your appliance's BTU output and height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance through professional parging to improve draft efficiency. Our masonry restoration includes brick repairs, lintel strengthening and waterproofing stone against dampness and salt intrusion.

Solving Draft, Smoke, and Odor Concerns
After upgrading inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential.
