Complete Chimney Maintenance Expertise

Routine chimney cleaning ensures your system stays safe, efficient, and up to code. You'll reduce fire risk, improve draft, and meet NFPA 211 guidelines. A certified sweep inspects accessible components, confirms clearances, and documents deficiencies. We scrub flue linings to perform creosote removal based on accumulation level, then remove debris with HEPA filtration to prevent soot distribution. We clear blockages, clean the smoke shelf, and confirm damper and cap operation.

We ensure safe ash disposal, using metal containers with secure lids, placed on noncombustible surfaces as per code guidance. We examine for water penetration, masonry debris, and pest habitation that could block ventilation. Before concluding, we perform a smoke path check, validate carbon monoxide alarms, and supply a written report with service intervals adapted to your specific fuel type and usage patterns.

Fireplace Repair and Restoration Expertise

If you're facing damaged fireplace components or deteriorating masonry, our certified technicians diagnose the root causes and rebuild components to satisfy NFPA 211 and IRC standards. Our team assesses structural damage, water penetration, and foundation issues, then specify appropriate refractory materials, stainless fasteners, and noncombustible clearances. Our service includes professional comprehensive repair and restoration work that improve functionality and protection.

We assess and document deficiencies while conducting load-path and hearth support inspections, ensuring proper ember and spark containment. If you own a period home, we stabilize historic mantels, conserve ornate tilework, and integrate discreet steel reinforcement without altering character. We match mortar with ASTM C270 standards, repair lintels, and re-anchor surrounds to maintain combustibility setbacks. Our final inspection process combines negative-pressure testing with detailed photo documentation.

Chimney Systems: Relining, Caps & Damper Solutions

After restoring smoke chambers and fireboxes to code, it's crucial to implement a flue system that provides safe and effective ventilation. We assess your flue's configuration, alignment, and heating requirements to size and install UL-listed liner materials that satisfy NFPA 211 and manufacturer specs. Stainless steel liners suit most wood and gas systems; aluminum fits some gas-only units; cast-in-place alternatives help strengthen weakened masonry. We insulate as required to preserve optimal flue temperatures and required safety clearances.

Well-designed chimney caps stop animal entry and ember discharge while channeling rain and snow away from the flue termination. We choose ember-blocking screens with rust-resistant mesh designed to preserve draft.

Damper systems deliver reliable climate control and energy conservation. We thoroughly inspect proper sealing, cable positioning, and gasket condition, and record results through comprehensive smoke and pressure testing.

Weatherproofing and Leak Detection Services

You can avoid expensive water-related problems by pinpointing common leak sources such as broken crown caps, worn mortar, absorbent masonry, and defective flashing. We will recommend building code approved flashing and cap upgrades that properly divert water and protect all openings to withstand rain and wind. For long-term protection, we will install moisture-permeable siloxane/silane waterproofing sealants to the external walls per manufacturer specs and NFPA 211 best practices.

Frequent Chimney Leak Points

While rain is often the main issue, most chimney leaks begin at particular problem areas: worn mortar joints, damaged crowns, damaged or absent chimney caps, damaged flashing where the chimney connects with the roof, permeable masonry missing water repellent, and deteriorated flue liners. You'll frequently notice leaks where roof valleys direct runoff toward the chimney, particularly when gutter clogs drive water back under shingles. Freezing and thawing expand hairline cracks, permitting capillary intrusion that damages interior walls, oxidizes dampers, and damages fireboxes. Unlined or damaged flue tiles can shed water into the smoke chamber. Inspect with a top-to-bottom approach: check the cap, crown, joints, brick saturation, and interior moisture staining. Document all findings per NFPA 211 levels of inspection and repair defects with appropriate materials to preserve structural integrity and fire safety.

Flashing & Cap Enhancement Options

From the roof perimeter down, moisture protection begins with properly installed flashing and a waterproof, regulation-compliant cap. You need step and counter-flashing installed under shingles and into mortar joints, not just surface caulk. Proper flashing repair includes replacing corroded metal, correcting laps, and integrating into the underlayment as per IRC and manufacturer guidelines. Our team reset mortar joints where reglets are cut, following which we place kick-out diverters to direct runoff from the chimney.

For the upper section, switch to stainless covers matching the flue(s) and crown, with protective screening that complies with NFPA 211. Stainless resists rust issues prevalent in Georgia's humid climate and acidic flue gases. Verify the cap's edge sheds water past the crown edge and anchors mechanically, using more than just sealant, to preserve structural integrity and minimize water infiltration.

Applications of Waterproofing Sealants

A comprehensive waterproofing plan begins after a thorough leak evaluation, including water and dye testing, moisture level testing, and examination of crowns, joints, and masonry porosity. You'll confirm active water paths, then choose materials suited to surface conditions and environment. Emphasize surface prep: power-clean, neutralize efflorescence, address cracks, restore failing mortar to ASTM C270, and allow proper dry times. Install a breathable silane/siloxane water repellent to vertical masonry to shed wind-driven rain without trapping vapor. Install an elastomeric crown coating with reinforcement fabric at connection points for flexibility. Seal flashing terminations and minor voids with UV-stable silicone sealant, tooling it to shed water. Maintain 2-3 wet-on-wet passes, verify coverage rates, and respect cure windows. Log before/after moisture readings and plan reinspection after major storms.

Code Requirements and Safety Protocols

Since fireplaces and chimneys function as life-safety components, you need documented inspections that verify condition, clearances, and code compliance prior to every heating period and following incidents like a flue fire, lightning strike, or structural change. You must follow inspection intervals outlined in NFPA 211 and local building codes, ensuring Level I, II, or III evaluations as warranted. A certified technician will examine chimney structure, liner condition, and cap functionality, combustible clearances, gas appliance venting, and draft. They'll inspect for creosote, obstructions, moisture damage, and incorrect vent endings. You'll obtain a written report with photos, defect categorization, and corrective actions prioritized for safety. When necessary, we arrange permits and re-inspections to confirm adherence. Avoid using the system until hazardous conditions are corrected and verified.
