Level 1 sweep and inspection to the NFPA 211 annual standard - flue, crown, cap, and flashing checked and photographed
Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.

Why Everett Homes Are Different
Everett’s mix of housing stock means we see distinct chimney conditions depending on the neighborhood. The historic homes in Bayside and Riverside, many built between 1890 and 1940, often have original masonry chimneys with clay tile liners that have been through decades of Puget Sound moisture. North Everett’s craftsman-style houses tend to have shallower fireboxes and narrower flues that creosote builds up in faster. The newer construction around Silver Lake and the Casino Road corridor usually has prefabricated chimneys with stainless steel liners, which need a different inspection approach than masonry work.
The climate is the biggest factor here. Everett gets roughly 35 inches of rain a year, and that moisture works its way into brick and mortar through freeze-thaw cycles every winter. We regularly see spalling brick faces and deteriorated crown mortar on Everett chimneys that still function fine internally, which is why an inspection matters even when the fireplace draws well. Homes on the bluffs above Puget Sound get salt air exposure that accelerates metal cap and flashing rust. None of this is unusual, but it does mean Everett jobs benefit from a chimney company that checks the exterior masonry as carefully as the flue interior.
Our Main Everett Services
These are the three jobs we handle most often for Everett homeowners, each with its own dedicated page so you can get pricing and detail without wading through anything you don’t need.
Chimney Sweep in Everett
A standard sweep removes creosote and soot from the flue liner, smoke chamber, damper, and firebox. In Everett, the wet burning season from October through April means most households produce more creosote than drier climates because fires burn cooler and smolder longer. We use rotary brushes sized to your specific flue dimensions, not a one-size-fits-all approach, and we run a camera after every sweep so you can see the liner is clean. Read the full breakdown on our Chimney Sweep in Everett page.
Chimney Inspection in Everett
Everett’s older housing stock means many chimneys have not been inspected in years, and Puget Sound rain has had time to work on the mortar. Our inspections cover the full system: flue liner condition, smoke chamber, damper operation, crown and cap, flashing, and exterior brick. We document everything with photos and provide a written report after the visit. For Everett homes changing hands or changing fuel type, this is the page to start with. Details are on our Chimney Inspection in Everett page.
Chimney Repair in Everett
Everett’s freeze-thaw cycle is rough on brick and crown mortar, and we see cracked crowns, spalled brick faces, and rusted dampers more often than liner failures in this area. When a liner does need work, we use stainless steel systems from DuraFlex or HeatShield’s resurfacing process, selected for the specific job rather than habit. Every repair comes with our 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing, and a free return visit if a covered repair fails within the year. See the full scope on our Chimney Repair in Everett page.

Steep pitches on view homes above the bluffs, tall chimneys on two-story craftsman houses, and wet-weather scheduling all add labor time. Whatever the number, you get it in writing before we start, and that is the number you pay.

Yes, as long as the flue is clear and the damper operates correctly.
