SWEEPING SERVICES
An essential part of maintaining your fire, sweeping removes soot and creosote and ensures the flue stays clear, enabling the quick escape of toxic gases.
We issue a certificate of sweeping for every sweep performed.
SERVICING & MAINTENANCE
Your fireplace is undoubtedly one of the main focal points in your home and therefore you will want to keep it looking at its best. We offer servicing and maintenance which covers things like rope replacement, new firebricks, stove refurbishment and repairs, to help keep your fireplace in shape.
NEST REMOVAL
Signs that you may have a bird or Squirrel nest is that you may hear some birds chirping and will likely see some sticks falling into your fireplace.
Nests cannot be removed in breeding season as there may be young in the nest.
CARBON MONOXIDE ALARMS
It is now a legal requirement to fit a CO Alarm in all rented properties with a solid fuel burning appliance and also when fitting a new stove.
We carry a supply of good quality alarms and are happy to fit them for you.
CCTV INSPECTION
Chimneys are tall, dark and invariably full of debris. The only real way to know accurately what is going on inside of a chimney is to carry out a CCTV inspection. We can eliminate any guesswork using our high quality camera and equipment, identifying and locating problems such as blockages, nests and damage.
DRONE SURVEYS
Your chimney and roof is the hardest part of your house to see, and often issues go unnoticed as a result. If you are having problems a drone survey is the perfect solution and can allow us to see what is needed without accessing the roof.
A photographic report can be provided if required. We are fully insured and licensed.
CREOSOTE REMOVAL
We offer a specialist chemical treatment to neutralise & remove flammable creosote build up.
BIRD GUARDS/COWLS
Ensure your chimney is kept nest free by fitting a bird guard or cowl, we supply and fit as required.
WEDDINGS ATTENDANCE
Over 200 years ago, when King George II was riding in a royal procession, a stray dog spooked his horse, causing him to lose control. A chimney sweep appeared from the crowd and helped him regain control and disappeared quickly back into the crowd.As the King had been unable to thank him for his bravery, he decreed that from that day all chimney sweeps are to be classed as bearers of good luck and should be treated with respect.
It has since become traditional for chimney sweeps to appear at weddings, to bestow luck and good fortune on the newlyweds. This is an unforgettable gift that is often arranged by a friend or family member. We attend the wedding in traditional dress, a handshake for the groom and a lucky kiss for the bride. We present the happy couple with a souvenir and personalised certificate to commemorate their special day. Happy to pose for photographs and will stay as longs as required.
