Our chimney sweep service goes beyond a basic cleaning—we use brushless systems to dislodge stubborn buildup, inspect for cracks or blockages, and ensure your flue is clear for optimal draft. We’ll also check your damper and smoke chamber for wear, especially important for older homes in the area where mortar can degrade faster. With a licensed, insured team, you’re not just getting a sweep—you’re getting a full safety audit. Schedule before the first cold front hits, and rest easy knowing your chimney’s ready for the season.

In Sammamish’s humid climate, lint and moisture can create a perfect storm for mold and fire risks—especially in older homes where vents may not be properly sealed. Our team uses high-powered vacuums to clear out years of buildup, check for hidden obstructions, and ensure your dryer runs safely and efficiently. We’ll also inspect the vent path for damage or gaps, which is critical for homes near the Sammamish River where humidity levels can spike. A clean vent means lower energy bills, fewer repair calls, and peace of mind.

Our wood stove and fireplace service includes deep soot removal, gasket and seal inspections, and a combustion efficiency test to ensure you’re not wasting fuel. We’ll also check for proper clearance from combustible materials, a common issue in older homes where wiring or insulation might be closer than code allows. With Sammamish’s mix of dry and damp winters, a well-maintained stove can mean the difference between a warm, efficient fire and a smoky, inefficient struggle. Let us handle the prep so you can enjoy the season without surprises.

Our creosote removal service uses specialized tools to break down and extract buildup without damaging your flue lining, which is especially important for older masonry chimneys common in Sammamish’s historic neighborhoods. We’ll also inspect for cracks, spalling, or rust in the flue and recommend repairs if needed. Ignoring creosote isn’t an option when you’re talking about a system that’s directly connected to your home’s safety. Schedule your sweep before the first fire of the season, and we’ll make sure your chimney’s as clean as the day it was built.

Sammamish’s mix of older homes and newer builds means some systems weren’t installed with modern safety standards in mind. Our carbon monoxide testing includes a thorough check of your chimney, stove, and venting system for leaks or blockages that could allow CO to seep into your living space. We’ll use portable detectors to measure levels and inspect for common issues like cracked heat shields or improperly sealed joints. If we find a problem, we’ll recommend fixes—whether it’s a simple sealant application or a full chimney relining. Don’t wait for a carbon monoxide alarm to go off—get your system tested before the heating season starts.
