Expert Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Removal

Conduct 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 manage fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that need 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. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and consistent draft for dependable operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, book a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to verify the safety and code compliance of your heating system. Level I examines standard safety requirements, and Level II incorporates detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
Throughout our inspection, we record the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and proper termination and draft levels. We perform ventilation testing to verify adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our inspection includes damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll receive a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we swiftly proceed with specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work to restore structural integrity and safe draft.

We provide professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
If your chimney liner is compromised due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, our team implements durable stainless or ceramic relining options specifically dimensioned for your appliance's BTU output and height, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers through professional parging to achieve smoother flow.

Fixing Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
After upgrading inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential.
