Chimcare Seattle

About Chimcare Seattle

Chimcare Seattle has been listed for thirty-seven years and has a team of fifteen. Its category is fireplace repair, and the hours run 8:00 am to 6:00 pm on weekdays and again on Sunday, with Saturday left blank.

The profile names five services: fixing fireplaces, fixing chimneys, gas line repair, and cleaning both the chimney and the firebox. It works on wood-burning units, gas fireplaces with and without a vent, and ethanol models, in brick, stone, concrete, metal, wood or plaster, and in buildings from one story up to high-rise. Seattle's rain is the main enemy of masonry chimneys. Water soaks into brick, mortar joints wear, and crowns crack, which can let moisture into the flue and the walls around it. Moss on the roof near a chimney can hold water against the flashing too.

Before you call, look for signs like white staining on exterior brick, flakes of masonry in the firebox, a damp smell when it rains, or water marks near the mantel. Mention how often you burn wood, since that affects how much creosote builds up. For gas units, say whether the pilot lights and stays on. Ask whether the visit includes a look at the cap, crown and flashing from the roof.
