Chimney Sweeping

In a mountain town like Vail, CO, where fireplaces are a staple for warmth during the long winters, regular chimney sweeping is essential. Over time, soot and creosote accumulate inside the chimney, increasing the risk of chimney fires and obstructing airflow. Professional chimney cleaning removes these hazardous buildups, improving efficiency and safety. Annual sweeping ensures your fireplace burns cleanly, reduces the risk of carbon monoxide exposure, and helps extend the lifespan of your heating system.

Chimney & Fireplace Repairs

With high-altitude weather, chimneys and fireplaces are exposed to harsh elements year-round. Cracked masonry, deteriorating mortar, and damaged chimney crowns can lead to costly structural issues if not addressed. Chimney and fireplace repairs restore safety and functionality by sealing leaks, replacing worn components, and reinforcing brickwork. Proactive maintenance helps prevent further deterioration, ensuring your chimney system remains reliable throughout the winter season.

Fireplace Installation

Adding a new fireplace to your home enhances both comfort and property value, particularly in our charming ski town. Whether you prefer a traditional wood-burning fireplace, a modern gas insert, or an efficient pellet stove, professional fireplace installation ensures proper setup, ventilation, and adherence to local building codes. Expert installation provides peace of mind, guaranteeing a safe and efficient heating source that complements your home’s aesthetic.

Dryer Vent Cleaning

With heavy winter gear and frequent laundry use, dryer vent cleaning is often overlooked but critically important for home safety. Lint buildup inside the vent restricts airflow, causing the dryer to overheat and posing a significant fire hazard. Routine cleaning removes blockages, improves dryer efficiency, and reduces energy costs. Experts recommend annual dryer vent inspections to keep your home safe and your appliance running efficiently.

Total Water Protection

The freeze-thaw cycles in Vail’s alpine climate can wreak havoc on chimneys, leading to cracks, leaks, and water damage. Total water protection involves applying professional-grade sealants, repairing flashing, and installing chimney caps to prevent moisture intrusion. Without proper waterproofing, masonry can deteriorate, leading to expensive repairs. Protecting your chimney from water damage ensures it remains structurally sound for years to come

Gas Fireplace Service and Repair

Gas fireplaces provide convenient warmth, but they require regular maintenance to operate safely. Gas fireplace service and repair includes cleaning burner ports, inspecting pilot lights, checking for gas leaks, and ensuring proper venting. Routine servicing prevents malfunctions and keeps your fireplace running at peak efficiency, providing reliable heat during frigid winter months.

You bet! Before honoring their warranties, most manufacturers require consumers to follow the regulations set forth by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). For stoves that burn cord wood and bio-fuel pellets, the recommendation is an annual sweep. Masonry fireplaces and factory-built fireplaces should be cleaned when the soot level reaches 1/8” thick on the inside walls of the chimney.

The NFPA’s Document 211 reads, “Chimneys, fireplaces, and vents shall be inspected at least once a year for soundness, freedom from deposits, and correct clearances. Cleaning, maintenance, and repairs shall be done if necessary.” It’s advised that you have your fireplace checked annually, regardless of how often you use it. Even if you only use your fireplace so often, you ought to arrange an inspection to verify that your chimney and fireplace lack issues such as loose dampers, leaves or nesting debris blocking the flue, or broken air shutters.

You ought to have a professional clean out your dryer’s ventilation once a year. The vent and its surrounding area ought to be inspected every 6 months to be sure there’s no damage.

Yes! While gas fireplaces burn cleaner than wood-burning fireplaces, they still require regular cleaning and maintenance to ensure safety, efficiency, and longevity. Even though gas burns without producing creosote, dust, soot, and carbon deposits can still accumulate inside the fireplace, on the burner, logs, glass, and venting system.
