Fireplace and Chimney Cleaning/Inspection
According to the National Fire Protection Association, homeowners should have their chimneys inspected and swept annually to keep a safe and efficient system. Chimney sweeps inspect, install, sweep and maintain these systems, diagnose performance issues, describe changes for performance improvement and educate the consumer about safe and efficient operation of venting systems.
Chimney Liners
Chimney liners are typically clay, metal or stainless steel liners that are installed in masonry chimneys to protect the chimney walls from heat and corrosion. A liner can also help send any combustible particles to the outside atmosphere.
Top-Mount Dampers
Your damper helps to regulate the flow of air inside your chimney system. If your damper is not opening or closing properly, this can cause major drafting issues you may be experiencing

Fireplace and Chimney Repair
Over time our chimneys endure exposure to the harsh elements here in the Pacific Northwest. The freeze and thaw we experience here can cause the moisture to permeate throughout the chimney causing damage to the interior as well as the exterior. It is important to take care of such damage to prevent further water damage or vermin infestation. If there has been earthquake damage or a chimney fire at your residence our skilled technicians also specialize in repairing your chimney up to code.
Chimney Caps
Chimney caps are an important part of any chimney system; they protect from outside elements such as rain, snow, animals or downdraft issues. Without this protection an open chimney can allow large amounts of water or critters to invade.
