Professional Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Removal
Secure your home by eliminating soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. This will lower chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and ensure combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Conduct flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and confirm the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and consistent draft for reliable operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, arrange a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to verify the proper condition and compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. The initial Level I assessment reviews standard safety requirements, and Level II includes video scanning of flues and accessible areas. A Level III assessment examines hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
Throughout our inspection, we document the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and draft performance and termination heights. We conduct ventilation testing to verify appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our safety checklist covers damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll get a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions
When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we promptly execute focused chimney rehabilitation, relining, and masonry fixes to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We evaluate deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, before applying code-approved repairs. You receive professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
For damaged liners from breaks, improper dimensions, or rust, our team implements durable stainless or ceramic relining options custom-fitted to the BTU rating and elevation of your unit, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup.

Addressing Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial.

Our team evaluates stack effect, uses manometers for draft measurement, and confirms cross-sectional dimensions, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.
We fix restrictions, remove creosote, and set proper air circulation between your firebox, fresh air intake, and exhaust system. You'll receive precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to stop smoke backdrafts. We repair ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
