Why do I need to sweep my chimney?
You should have your chimney swept at least once a year as a bare minimum. This ensures your chimney is kept as clean as possible and prevents any build up that will become harder to remove if you leave it any longer. There is also a higher risk of a chimney fire
The best way to prove a chimney is being maintained is to show evidence such as a chimney sweep certificate. We provide a proof of sweep certificate.

What causes chimney fires? Chimney fires are often caused by a build up of tar/creosote or soot
Whatever you do, don’t try to clean your chimney yourself. Use a professional, accredited chimney sweep. They can inspect your chimney properly and give you a certificate when done.
As well as getting your chimney swept, you should also check the structure is all safe, well-maintained and up to the challenge of coping with modern heating appliances. We suggest lining your chimney if it isn’t already, which should be done by a qualified and certified chimney engineer.
