Older brick chimneys in Lacey often hide decades of wear behind their classic facades—loose bricks, cracked mortar, and hidden creosote buildup that can spark fires or block airflow. Our full masonry inspection starts with a visual check of your flue, crown, and flashing, then a meticulous sweep to remove every trace of soot and creosote. We use industry-grade brushes and vacuums to protect your home’s interior while ensuring no debris is left behind. For chimneys over 30 years old, we also test for moisture damage, a silent killer of masonry that causes bricks to spall and liners to corrode. You’ll get a detailed report with photos and repair recommendations—no upsells, just honest advice. Service includes a free estimate on the spot.

We install stainless steel liners sized to your flue’s exact dimensions, whether it’s a tight 8-inch round or an irregular 1920s oval. Our liners are insulated to prevent heat loss and resist corrosion, even in Lacey’s damp winters. We seal joints with high-temperature silicone and test for draft efficiency before sealing the chase. Many Lacey homeowners don’t realize their chimney was never properly lined; we fix that with minimal disruption and a 10-year warranty on labor. Ask about our bundle deals with sweeping.

Crumbling mortar joints let water seep in, freezing in winter and expanding to crack bricks. We remove damaged mortar to a depth of ¾-inch, then repoint with a custom-blend mortar that matches your original brick’s color and texture. For severely damaged sections, we rebuild using salvaged bricks where possible to preserve authenticity. Our process includes sealing the repaired area to prevent future moisture intrusion. We stand behind our work with a decade-long warranty and offer free estimates within 24 hours of your call.
Request this service →A cracked chimney crown or failing flashing is a ticking time bomb for Lacey’s older homes—water drips into the flue, freezes, and cracks the liner, then rots the wooden framing below. We rebuild or resurface your crown with a reinforced concrete mix that resists cracking, then install or replace flashing with copper or aluminum to create a watertight seal. Our team checks for hidden damage behind the crown and under shingles, often catching issues before they become costly repairs. All materials are rated for Lacey’s wet winters, and we include a moisture barrier in every job. Service is backed by a 10-year warranty.
Request this service →Creosote isn’t just soot—it’s a tar-like substance that hardens into a flammable glaze, especially in Lacey’s older, slower-burning wood stoves. Our high-temperature cleaning process removes every layer of creosote, from loose soot to glazed deposits, using specialized tools and vacuums. We also inspect for cracks in the flue that could allow heat to escape and ignite nearby combustibles. Homeowners in Lacey’s older neighborhoods often underestimate how quickly creosote accumulates; we’ve seen ¼-inch buildup in just two seasons. Our service includes a free carbon monoxide test to ensure your chimney is drafting properly.
