We pride ourselves on providing a clean, reliable and friendly service that offers great value and minimum fuss. We've been sweeping chimneys for more than 120 years, and we don't think we could have been in this business for that long without being rather good at it! Personable and professional, our sweeps operate to the highest standards in the industry thanks to comprehensive training and regular reassessments of their standards.
As well as a clear police check, each is covered by a minimum of 2m public liability insurance and also has professional indemnity insurance. They're also trained on interacting with people who have dementia or disabilities.

Chimneys with solid fuel appliances: Smokeless fuels at least once a year / Domestic bituminous coal at least twice a year / Wood burning every three months when in use. If it has been used but not been swept within the past 12 months, for safety it should be swept as soon as possible.
If it has not been used since it was last swept, and the problem of birds nesting can be ruled out (if there is a cage or cowl on the chimney), it could be due to the cold or weather conditions.Please call us and we may be able to give advice on the appropriate action to be taken. If you think there is a blockage in your chimney, please advise us, or call to discuss the problem.

Excellent service at a fair price. Our sweep (Mark Yeomans) was punctual, polite and extremely careful. He left the room he was working in spotlessly clean and did a thorough job of sweeping the chimney. Highly recommend.
