I take care and attention to make sure that each chimney is thoroughly swept and that the soot removed never enters your home thanks to industry leading vacuum technology used on every sweep.

Protect Your Property
Clean sheets, clean systems of working and an extremely powerful industrial vacuum ensure that your property is kept clean.
Thorough Clean of Your Chimney Flue
I use the very best brushes and rods using both traditional modern techniques to ensure that every flue is left clear and safe to use.
Inspection of your Stove, Fire or Appliance, Stove maintenance
Your appliance will be checked to make sure it is working efficiently. I can replace ropes, seals and glass as required.
Draft Test
I carry out a smoke test to ensure that your flue is fully clear and functioning after I have completed sweeping.
Cowl or Pot Check
I check to make sure each and every chimney flue I work on is topped off with the correct outlet for the appliance used and can give professional advice if the wrong cowl or pot has been fitted.
Certificate
On completion you will be given a sweeping certificate which will confirm the work has been undertaken to industry standards with any issues identified and recorded.
Troubleshooting
An important part of my job is to examine and evaluate your appliance, the flue efficiency and to offer advice on its safe operation. Fuel is expensive, so I am also pleased to advise on how you can get the most from your chosen fuel and reduce your costs.
I would like to assure all current and new customers that I take your safety very seriously. I have strict safety procedures in place to help prevent the spread of coronavirus and will be pleased to discuss managing risk for your own particular circumstances.

I used appropriate sheeting to protect floors and carpets and effective dust control being the norm. Use of proper p3 dust masks and protective gloves also being standard practice.
I now have ENHANCED protection in place:
With regret I’m unable to accept tea and biscuits for now.
