Services
Chimney Sweeping
Our chimney sweeping service removes creosote and soot deposits using professional-grade brushes and vacuum systems. This prevents chimney fires, improves smoke draw, and ensures compliance with insurance requirements. We service all chimney types, including open fires, wood stoves, and gas flues.
Blockage Removal
We clear blockages caused by bird nests, debris, or fallen masonry to restore safe chimney function. Our tools and techniques ensure complete removal without damaging your chimney structure or interior.
Smoke Emission Testing
Post-sweeping smoke emission tests verify proper venting of harmful gases. This service ensures your chimney operates safely and efficiently, meeting environmental and regulatory standards.
Bird Guards Installation
We install bird guards and cowls to prevent re-blockages while maintaining airflow. These durable solutions protect against pests and weather damage, extending chimney lifespan.
Insurance Certificates
After each service, we issue detailed insurance-recognised certificates. These documents prove regular maintenance, which many insurers require for chimney fire claims.

Questions
How often should I have my chimney cleaned?
Smokeless coal chimneys require annual cleaning. Wood-burning chimneys need quarterly maintenance during use. Gas and oil flues should be cleaned yearly for safety.
What causes chimney fires?
Chimney fires typically result from creosote buildup from incomplete combustion. Using unseasoned wood, restricted airflow, or cold chimneys accelerates this flammable residue.
Do you provide emergency services?
Yes, we offer urgent chimney unblocking and safety checks outside regular hours. Contact us anytime for urgent fireplace issues.
Are your services insurance-recognised?
We issue detailed insurance-recognised certificates after every sweep, meeting most insurers' requirements for chimney fire claims.
How do you prevent mess during cleaning?
Our advanced vacuum systems contain debris, and we guarantee no soot or dust escape into your home during the cleaning process.
