Chimney Sweep Broadland

Why does my Chimney need to be swept?

A chimney needs to be swept to stop soot, tar, dust or even cobwebs building up and causing restriction or total blockage. If the flue is restricted or blocked carbon monoxide, smoke and fumes will enter your home with possible serious health consequences and damage to your home. As you use your appliance soot builds up in the flue which if not swept correctly may lead to a chimney fire and at the very least will prevent your appliance from working properly.

Is it messy? Do we cover everything? What do I need to do?

We can guarantee no mess and no fuss. We bring all our own sheets to put on your floor, but all we require is a clear working area in front of the hearth with any ornaments moved to a safe area and clear passage between the door and fireplace. 

How often should i have my chimney swept?

We encourage having your chimney swept at least twice a year when burning wood or bituminous house coal and at least once a year when burning smokeless fuels.
