Professional Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Cleaning

Perform flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to dislodge 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. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and confirm the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and consistent draft for dependable operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, schedule a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to ensure the proper condition and compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. The initial Level I assessment reviews basic conditions and clearances, while Level II adds video scanning of flues and accessible areas. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
During your assessment, we record the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and draft performance and termination heights. We perform ventilation testing to verify adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our comprehensive review examines firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll obtain a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
