How often should a chimney be swept?
How often you need a sweep depends on your appliance, the fuel you burn and how regularly you use it. We can recommend a suitable sweeping routine for your installation.
How long does it take?
We generally allow a couple of hours per chimney or appliance for a first appointment. The time needed varies depending on your appliance, the chimney’s condition and whether we find any unexpected issues.
What do I need to do beforehand?
Please clear an area of around 2 metres in front of your fireplace or stove so we can set up our equipment safely. Move furniture, ornaments and valuables away from the immediate work area.
Do I receive a certificate?
Yes. We’ll issue a chimney sweeping certificate for your solid-fuel installation and highlight any issues we find.
When you get in touch, it is useful to provide a few details about your chimney and appliance.
Photographs are very helpful for providing information before the visit.
