Expert Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Elimination
Secure your property by eliminating soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. You will reduce chimney temperatures, improve draft, and ensure combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Conduct flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to detect 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 clear. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and consistent draft for reliable operation.
Comprehensive Safety Evaluations and Inspections
Before starting your first fire of the season, book a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to confirm the safety and code compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. The initial Level I assessment reviews standard safety requirements, and 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.
During your assessment, we document the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and draft performance and termination heights. We conduct ventilation testing to confirm adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our inspection includes the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll get a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we swiftly proceed with specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We examine deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, then execute repairs meeting all codes. You get expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
If your chimney liner is compromised due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, our team implements durable stainless or ceramic relining options perfectly sized to match your appliance's BTU output and height, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance using specialized parging techniques for enhanced airflow. Our masonry services encompass brick repairs, lintel strengthening and stone sealing to prevent water and salt damage. Every repair is thoroughly documented, undergoes pressure testing as required, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades

Addressing Draft, Smoke, and Odor Concerns

We provide optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to prevent back-puffing. We correct leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and require dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. In locations with strong winds, we incorporate specialized baffled caps. We verify our work using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
