Getting a chimney sweep done is the most important step to ensure a safer chimney. Sweeping a chimney and maintained every year reduces the risk of blockages, carbon monoxide poisoning and chimney fires which ultimately can be fatal.

Upon arrival, clear access to the fireplace or boiler is required, with at least 6ft² in front for tools and work. Please remove all ornaments and valuables from the hearth and mantel so we can attach protective sheets over the opening.
After sweeping, we will provide advice on efficient burning and appliance performance. A smoke test will be conducted on every appliance/flue to ensure proper draught and room air supply, with all doors and windows closed. This test also confirms no combustion products escape, preventing potential carbon monoxide risks.
Sweeping and inspection frequency depends on your fuel type; we follow industry-recommended intervals.
The number one question! We always pride ourselves on leaving a fireplace (and your home) cleaner than when we found it.
To do this, we use protective sheeting, floor runners, PPE, foot coveralls and we ensure (where possible) that anyone who lives in the home (including pets) are out of the room where the sweeping is going to be carried out.
We then pack the chimney opening to ensure no dust or soot is released into your home, and use a high-powered 99% HEPA filtration vacuum to remove that soot after the sweeping is complete.
This process is, suprisingly, virtually dust free!
We finish up with a Carbon Monoxide test, and certificate the work we’ve carried out for future maintenance.
Depending on what type of fuel you burn will depend also on how often you should sweep and inspect your flue system serving your appliance. These are the industry recommended intervals for sweeping.
