Did you know that unswept chimneys are the main cause of chimney fires?
Chimney sweeps are essential to remove soot buildup, one of the most common causes for chimney fires. Regular chimney sweeps also reduce the risk of blockages, another leading cause for chimney fires. Along with chimney sweeps, a bird guard can be fitted to reduce debris and birds blocking the chimney too.
it is recommended your chimney flu should be swept at least once a year, if not twice depending on the usage of your chimney. If you need advice on when to have your chimney swept don’t hesitate to give us a call.

CCTV inspections can be important when trying to detect an issue that cannot be seen from outside of the flue or maybe difficult to say. A CCTV inspection can be used to view damage to the inside of the flue or blockages which may be causing issues, such as a Birdsnest.
