Federal Way grew fast in the 1960s through the 1980s, and most of its homes in Twin Lakes, Steel Lake, Lakota, Mirror Lake, and West Campus date from that period. They came with masonry or factory-built wood fireplaces, and many owners have since added gas logs or inserts. The Dash Point and Redondo waterfront adds older cottages and newer view homes.
We sweep, inspect, and repair chimneys, service gas fireplaces, and install inserts across Federal Way.
Salt air along Dash Point and Redondo corrodes chimney caps, chase covers, and dampers faster than inland, and we replace a lot of rusted-through caps there. Inland, the 1970s factory-built fireplaces in Twin Lakes and Mirror Lake are reaching the age where refractory panels crack and chase covers leak. Uncapped masonry flues near the wooded parks collect debris and nests.
Federal Way is in King County and follows Puget Sound Clean Air Agency burn bans.
Send us your zip code and what you need. We reply with a fixed price and available dates. Waterfront homeowners should have caps and chase covers checked every year; a stainless cap ends the rust cycle.
Leaks, cracked crowns, spalling brick, failed liners, and stuck dampers fixed before water damage and fire risk spread.
A top-to-bottom check of the flue, liner, crown, cap, and flashing, with the findings explained in plain language.
Creosote and soot removed from the firebox to the cap, the flue checked for blockages, and the hearth left clean.

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.
