Perform flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to identify 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 free of debris. Discard debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and reliable draft for safe operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, schedule a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to confirm the safety and code compliance of your heating system. The initial Level I assessment reviews standard safety requirements, and Level II includes detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. A Level III assessment examines concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
As part of our evaluation, we record liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and draft performance and termination heights. We run ventilation testing to confirm proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our comprehensive review examines firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll receive a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions

If your chimney liner is compromised through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, our team implements durable stainless or ceramic relining options specifically dimensioned for your appliance's BTU output and height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance through professional parging to achieve smoother flow.

Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors usually trace to improper pressure, clogged flues, or misaligned damper and cap configurations. We diagnose stack effect, measure draft with a manometer, and verify cross-sectional area, liner continuity, and termination height.
We address restrictions, remove creosote, and set balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. You'll get 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.
