A & B Chimney Sweeps
Sweeps assistant and apprentice when home from Plymouth university where he is studying Marine Conservation. You will often find him hoovering and cleaning up. Jack has been working part time at Best sweep for a couple of years during breaks in his University course of marine conservation.

Bruce came to sweep our chimney and quickly realized our woodburner had been incorrectly installed and was a potential fire hazard and could possibly leak lethal carbon monoxide gas.Once the problem was rectified ( by someone he had referred to us, who was also excellent) Bruce came back the same day and did an excellent job.
Services
We repair stoves, fitting new fire bricks, glass, rope seals, fire cement seals, cutting and fitting access doors into stove pipes, striping and deep cleaning and re-blacking back to showroom condition. We also fabricate and fit register plates. We also provide a small engineering service to drill out and re-cut threads and weld small stove items that can often save hundreds of pounds replacing parts.
Do you want to find a local Bristol chimney sweep that respects your home or property as you do providing a flexible professional service to clean your stove or fire? Do you live in Bristol, Bath, South Gloucester, Weston-super-mare, North Somerset, Chepstow or the surrounding areas? Do you want value for money and a chimney sweep you can trust?
We cover a large urban and rural area encompassing Bristol, Bath, North/South Somerset and parts of Wales and Gloucestershire. We always aim to get to you when required but the earlier you book in the year and the more notice you give the easier it is to slot you in. We get very busy from September onward and there can often be a 4 week lead time.
There are occasions when you may need us either out of normal hours or ungently. A smoking fire ahead of a dinner party, birds/squirrels/rats stuck in the chimney or in the room are typical situations we deal with. We charge a transparent and realistic call out fee that is very competitive compared to other trades.
We get called to a large number of properties where people have just moved in and find a fireplace or stove fitted that they want to use but there is no history or safety documents and they don't know if it is safe to use. In addition, if you are changing the use of a fire (e.g. from gas to solid fuel) or reinstating an old fireplace then the same service applies; regulations state you must have the 3 stage flue check.

Bruce is a super helpful guy who was willing to take time out of his day to offer us free advice on a rather serious structural problem we had with our chimney flue. Would highly recommend! 😊

I cannot recommend Bruce enough. I have just bought my first house, and have never had to use a chimney sweep before, and Bruce was a fountain of knowledge. He explained all of the issues with our chimney, and resolved them all in under an hour. He was punctual and polite, and on a personal level - a very interesting man. Ask him about his Ultra Running and get some tips on traveling Malta.
5* service, at an extremely reasonable price. Thanks Bruce!

It isn't often that you get to meet service providers that are as professional, understanding and customer-oriented as Bruce.
Bruce came to sweep the chimney in the house we just moved into and in addition to his very clean job (you couldn't tell he came over to sweep the chimney) he gave me great recommendations to ensure my installation will be safe. In addition, Bruce took time to explain to me his work so that I could understand everything, and so that I could make the right choices in the future to ensure a safe use of our fireplace. I couldn't recommend him more.

Bruce did an excellent job. Cleaned it really well, tested our alarm and made sure he left the room clean and tidy. Was running early so asked if it was ok to come earlier than our appointment time, which was brilliant for us and really considerate. Was really helpful and answered all the questions that I had. Feel happy with the service and that it is safe and in good condition. Will definitely be a regular!
