Services
Chimney Sweeping
Thorough cleaning of chimneys using appropriately sized brushes and rods to remove soot and debris. Ensures safe, efficient flue operation while preventing damage to liners. Includes a final smoke draught test to verify performance.
CCTV Inspections
Advanced camera inspections to identify blockages, cracks, or tar buildup in chimneys. Provides visual evidence of flue condition, enabling precise maintenance recommendations. Essential for diagnosing hidden issues in metal or clay-lined chimneys.
Stove Servicing
Comprehensive servicing of woodburning and multifuel stoves. Includes checking seals, liners, and combustion efficiency. Ensures compliance with HETAS standards and reduces risks of carbon monoxide leaks through proper maintenance.
Nest Removal
Safe removal of bird nests from chimneys to prevent blockages and carbon monoxide risks. Followed by flue cleaning and draught testing to restore proper ventilation and appliance functionality.
Power Sweeping
Specialised power sweeping for heavily sooted or tarred chimneys. Uses controlled pressure to dislodge stubborn deposits without damaging liners. Recommended for chimneys with restricted airflow or prior tar buildup.
Questions
How often should I have my chimney swept?
Smokeless fuel chimneys annually, coal twice yearly, wood-burning quarterly when in use, and gas/oil chimneys annually for safety and efficiency.
Why is carbon monoxide safety important?
Carbon monoxide is a silent killer produced by incomplete combustion. Regular sweeping and appliance checks prevent dangerous leaks, ensuring household safety.
What preparation is needed before a sweep?
Ensure the flue hasn't been lit for 24 hours, clear ash/fuel, and provide clear access to the fireplace and power sockets.
Do you issue insurance certificates?
Yes, we provide HETAS-recognised certificates after every service, confirming compliance with safety standards for insurance purposes.
Can you inspect chimney liners?
Yes, we use CCTV to inspect all liner types (metal, clay, brick) and recommend repairs if cracks or tar buildup are detected.
