Creosote is the number-one cause of chimney fires in the United States, and the Pacific Northwest's damp climate accelerates its buildup faster than many homeowners realize. Our Lynnwood chimney sweeping service uses professional-grade rotary brushes and high-powered HEPA vacuum systems to remove all stages of creosote, soot, bird nests, leaves, and other blockages from your flue. We protect your home interior completely — no mess, no residue left behind. Every sweep includes a visual inspection of the firebox, damper, and smoke chamber so we catch any developing issues early. We recommend annual cleaning for wood-burning fireplaces and gas fireplaces alike. After our visit, you'll receive a written summary of the work performed and the current condition of your chimney system.
Request this service →A chimney inspection is more than a quick glance up the flue. At David Chimney, we perform NFPA 211-standard Level 1 and Level 2 inspections for Lynnwood homeowners, real estate transactions, and insurance requirements. Level 1 inspections cover all accessible interior and exterior components. Level 2 inspections include a detailed video scan of the flue interior, revealing hidden cracks, mortar deterioration, liner damage, or animal intrusions that are invisible to the naked eye. Every inspection produces a clear written report with photographs, so you understand exactly what we found and what — if anything — needs attention. No upselling, no scare tactics — just honest, professional assessment you can use to make informed decisions about your home.

Small cracks and gaps that look cosmetic can quickly allow water intrusion, accelerating deterioration of the liner, firebox, and surrounding structure. David Chimney offers comprehensive repair services including crown repair and rebuilding, mortar joint tuckpointing, spalling brick replacement, firebox repair, and smoke chamber parging. We use professional-grade materials rated for the thermal stresses of active fireplace use — not generic hardware-store patches. Every repair is backed by our workmanship warranty, so you have peace of mind long after we leave. We always provide a detailed written estimate before any work begins, with no hidden fees and no pressure to approve services you don't need right now.

David Chimney installs premium stainless steel flexible and rigid liner systems for wood-burning fireplaces, wood stoves, gas inserts, and oil appliances throughout the Lynnwood area. Our liners meet all Washington State building codes and manufacturer specifications, ensuring safe, efficient operation for decades. Liner installation also dramatically improves draft performance, reducing smoke spillback and making your fireplace easier and more enjoyable to use. We handle the complete project from measurement and material sourcing through installation and final inspection, and we provide all required documentation for permit and insurance purposes upon request.
Request this service →Your chimney cap and crown are the first line of defense against Lynnwood's considerable rainfall. A missing, cracked, or improperly sized cap allows rainwater to pour directly into your flue, accelerating liner and mortar deterioration and creating ideal conditions for mold growth inside your home. It also gives birds, raccoons, and squirrels an open invitation to nest. David Chimney supplies and installs heavy-gauge stainless steel and copper chimney caps custom-fitted to your flue dimensions, along with complete crown rebuilding and application of professional waterproofing sealants that flex with the masonry rather than trapping moisture inside. These are genuinely preventive investments — a properly installed cap and sealed crown can save thousands of dollars in avoidable repair costs over the life of your chimney.
Request this service →Clogged dryer vents are one of the leading causes of residential fires nationwide, yet most Lynnwood homeowners never schedule a professional cleaning. Lint accumulates deep in the duct system beyond what any standard brush or vacuum can reach, restricting airflow, forcing your dryer to work harder, and creating a genuine combustion hazard. David Chimney's dryer vent cleaning service uses professional rotary cleaning systems and high-volume air pressure to fully clear lint from the entire duct length, from the dryer connection all the way through the exterior vent cap. Signs you're overdue include longer drying times, a hot dryer cabinet, or a musty smell on clean clothes. We recommend annual cleaning for most households and twice-yearly cleaning for large families. Our technicians also inspect the duct for kinks, improper connections, and code compliance issues.
