Professional Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Removal
Protect your property by eliminating soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. You will lower chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and maintain combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Execute flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to locate glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Remove debris from the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and reliable draft for dependable operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, arrange a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to confirm the proper condition and compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. Level I examines clearances and general condition, whereas Level II adds detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. Level III is necessary for hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
During your assessment, we record liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and termination heights, and draft performance. We conduct ventilation testing to confirm adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our safety checklist covers damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll obtain a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we promptly execute specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We assess crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then execute repairs meeting all codes. We provide professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
If your chimney liner is compromised through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, we expertly fit durable stainless or ceramic relining options specifically dimensioned for the BTU rating and elevation of your unit, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers through professional parging to improve draft efficiency. Our masonry restoration includes brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and stone sealing to prevent dampness and salt intrusion. We maintain detailed records of all repairs, undergoes pressure testing as required, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades

We assess firebox condition, chimney capacity, and spacing requirements, then propose high-performance inserts sized for your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units offer airtight operation, enhanced thermal efficiency, and reliable draft control.
We replace worn dampers with premium sealing solutions, add insulated stainless liners where necessary, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement.

We commission every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and documentation for permits and warranties.
Resolving Draft, Odor, and Smoke Problems
After upgrading inserts and controls, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors usually trace to negative pressure, blocked flues, or incorrect damper and cap geometry. We assess stack effect, check draft levels using manometers, and examine cross-sectional measurements, along with liner condition and proper termination elevation.
We fix blockages, clean creosote buildup, and adjust balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. You'll get 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.
For odor control, we implement void sealing and improve air circulation and require dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. In windy zones, we install wind-baffling caps. We verify our work using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
