Chimney Sweeping

Chimney sweeping should be carried out once a year minimum, and in some cases twice a year depending on the appliance. Chimneys are swept to ensure there is no flammable debris left in the chimney, if the chimney is restricted it can cause poisonous gases to come back into the room and cause great danger. Sweeping a chimney also prevents fires and allows for a nice warm roaring fire! Call us now to speak to our friendly staff on 01622 278160 or 07383670335
