What we do

Every service an old chimney asks for

Sweeping, camera inspection, stainless relining, crown and mortar work — the full trade, from one crew that knows 1900s-era brick.

Ranges are ballparks — an older flue gets its exact price on-site, in writing, after we inspect it.

Chimney inspection with a flue camera

Every visit

What we check — top to bottom

The chimneys we work on have been standing since the streetcar era, and they hide their troubles well. We walk the whole system — firebox to crown — and photograph what we find, so a ninety-year-old flue never has to be taken on faith.

  • The flue and liner — many pre-1930 flues were never lined at all
  • Crown, cap and flashing, where Seattle drizzle finds its way in
  • Original masonry: brick faces, mortar joints and settling
  • Creosote build-up, draft and venting safety

Why us

Why owners of old houses call us first

No call centers and no scare tactics — a licensed crew that respects original masonry, documents everything, and quotes it honestly.

  • Licensed & insured

    Licensed and insured for North Seattle home-improvement work. We carry what the state requires and stand behind every repair.

  • Written quote first

    You get a clear written quote — with the deposit and balance shown up front — before any work begins. We recommend only what your chimney actually needs.

  • Before & after photos

    Every job is documented with before-and-after photos, so you can see exactly what was inspected and what was repaired — no guesswork.

  • Written warranty

    Completed work comes with a written warranty document, so your repair is backed in writing — not just a handshake.

  • Transparent payment

    A clear deposit — never more than 50% — shown up front on your written quote, with the balance due only once the work is finished and you're satisfied.

  • One local crew

    The crew that quotes your job is the crew that does it — no call centers, no rotating subcontractors.

Who shows up

Local crews — never subcontractors

Book with us and you get our own people, not a dispatch service reading from a script. These streets of brick Tudors and craftsman porches are the ones we drive every week — which means advice you can trust and a name you can call back years from now.

  • At home north of the Ship Canal — Ballard, Fremont, Green Lake, Ravenna, Wedgwood and the blocks between
  • The technician who quotes your chimney is the one who climbs back up to fix it
  • Drop cloths down, dust contained — a 1920s living room deserves that courtesy

Good to know

Questions we hear on the doorstep

What areas do you serve?
The neighborhoods of North Seattle — Ballard, Fremont, Greenwood, Phinney Ridge, Green Lake, Wallingford, Ravenna, Wedgwood, Maple Leaf and Northgate. If you live north of the Ship Canal, you're on our route.
Is the inspection really free?
It is. Reserving a slot online costs nothing and asks for no card. Money only enters the picture if you approve work — and by then the price is already fixed in a written quote.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. We hold the contractor registration and insurance the State of Washington requires for chimney and masonry work, and we stand behind every repair we make.
How fast can you come out?
Our calendar shows real openings, not a promise to call you back. Pick the soonest slot that suits you — in most of North Seattle that's a matter of days, since the whole footprint sits within a short drive.
Do you document the work?
Every time. Chimneys hide their problems above the roofline and inside the flue, so we photograph what we find and what we fix — before and after — and the photos are yours to keep.
How is pricing determined?
The ranges on this site are honest ballparks. A century-old flue in Ballard and a mid-century stack in Wedgwood rarely need the same scope, so your exact price is set on-site after the inspection and put in writing before any work starts.
