Expert Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Elimination
Secure your property by removing soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. You will reduce chimney temperatures, improve draft, and ensure combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Perform flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that demand mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Remove debris from the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and stable 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 ensure that your chimney and fireplace meet your chimney and fireplace system. Level I examines standard safety requirements, whereas Level II includes detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates 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 proper termination and draft levels. We conduct ventilation testing to confirm appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our safety checklist covers the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll obtain a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we promptly execute targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We examine crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then execute repairs meeting all codes. You receive professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
When your liner shows signs of damage through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, our team implements high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions specifically dimensioned for your unit's heat output and chimney height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers through professional parging to improve draft efficiency. We provide comprehensive masonry work including replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and waterproofing stone against water and salt damage. We maintain detailed records of all repairs, includes pressure testing where needed, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options

Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units offer sealed combustion, improved heat transfer, and dependable ventilation control.
We install new worn dampers with high-performance sealing mechanisms, incorporate insulated stainless liners where necessary, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can automate ignition, configure temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and include safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with thorough testing and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Addressing Draft, Odor, and Smoke Problems
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells typically stem from improper pressure, clogged flues, or misaligned damper and cap configurations. Our team evaluates stack effect, uses manometers for draft measurement, and confirms cross-sectional dimensions, liner continuity, and termination height.
We fix obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. We provide tuned combustion air, calibrated dampers, and tight gasketing to stop smoke backdrafts. We repair 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 require appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. In windy zones, we incorporate specialized baffled caps. We confirm effectiveness through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
