We sweep, inspect, and repair wood and gas fireplaces and chimneys in Seattle, the Eastside, and South Sound. You get a fixed quote before work starts and a plain-language summary of what we found when we finish.

Evergreen Chimney Sweep serves homeowners in Seattle and the surrounding cities. We sweep, inspect, and repair masonry and factory-built chimneys, and we work on wood, gas, and pellet appliances.
Seattle’s wet climate is hard on chimneys. Water gets into crowns and flashing, brick faces spall, and dampers rust. We look for these problems on every visit and tell you what needs attention now and what can wait.
We work on chimneys, fireplaces, and vents every day, so we recognize the failures common to Seattle homes quickly: wet-weather spalling, rusted dampers, cracked crowns, and creosote from damp firewood.
A hairline crown crack gets a sealant, not a rebuild. A blocked flue gets cleared, not replaced. We explain the options, give you a price for each, and let you decide.
We are based in the Seattle area and answer requests from Seattle, the Eastside, and South Sound. If something is not right after a visit, tell us and we will come back to fix it.

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 211) recommends an inspection every year and a sweep whenever creosote or soot has built up. Most Seattle households that burn wood through fall and winter need one sweep a year. Occasional burners can often go longer, and the inspection will tell you.
A visual check of the firebox, damper, smoke chamber, flue liner, crown, cap, and flashing. We look for creosote, cracks, water intrusion, and blockages such as nests. You get a summary of what we found and what needs attention.
Yes. We service wood, gas, and pellet appliances, including inserts and factory-built fireplaces, which are common in newer Seattle and Eastside homes.
Stains on the ceiling or wall near the chimney, a damp smell after rain, white mineral deposits on the brick, and rust on the damper are the usual signs. Seattle’s long wet season makes crown and flashing leaks common, and both are cheaper to fix early.
