Sweeping and inspection
Standard Chimney Sweeping
A thorough power sweep of your stove or open fire flue with a certificate for your insurer.
A clean flue is the single most important thing you can do for a stove or open fire. Soot and creosote build up every time you light it, and left alone they choke the draw, blacken the glass and eventually catch fire.
Rob sweeps every type of chimney across Barnsley and South Yorkshire using modern rotary power sweeping equipment, a sealed fireplace and HEPA filtered vacuum. Dust sheets go down before anything else and your home is left exactly as he found it.
What is included
- Dust sheets down and the fireplace sealed before work starts
- Full rotary power sweep of the flue from hearth to pot
- Visual check of the stack, pot and cowl from ground level
- Smoke draw test to confirm the flue is clear and drawing
- Stove check including door rope, glass, baffle and fire bricks
- Fire bricks and baffle removed, cleaned and refitted where accessible
- HETAS sweeping certificate for your records and insurer
Who it is for
- Anyone with a wood burner, multi fuel stove or open fire that has not been swept in the last twelve months
- Homeowners whose insurer asks for proof of an annual sweep
- Stoves that are smoking back, hard to light or burning poorly
FAQs
Chimney Sweeping questions
Around 45 minutes to an hour for a typical stove or open fire, a little longer if the flue is heavily tarred or the stove needs stripping down.
