Professional Chimney Sweep Services from £80

Is your chimney due for a sweep? Perhaps you’ve noticed soot build-up, poor stove performance, or unusual odours?

At Flue & Flame, our professional chimney sweep services help homeowners keep their chimneys safe, clean, and efficient, preventing common hazards and ensuring your stove operates at its best.

Why Regular Chimney Sweeping Matters

Regular chimney sweeping isn’t just a recommendation—it’s a necessity. Neglecting your chimney can lead to issues such as blockages, reduced efficiency, and even dangerous chimney fires.

Here’s why professional chimney sweeping matters:

  • Improves Stove Efficiency: A clean chimney ensures proper airflow, improving the performance and heat output of your stove.
  • Prevents Chimney Fires: Removing soot, tar, and creosote build-up significantly reduces the risk of chimney fires.
  • Protects Health: Regular sweeping prevents harmful gases like carbon monoxide from entering your living spaces.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How often should I have my chimney swept?

We recommend annual sweeping for regularly used chimneys. If you rely heavily on your stove or fireplace, consider two sweeps per year—once before winter and again halfway through the season.

How long does chimney sweeping take?

Typically, a chimney sweep takes about 45–60 minutes. This can vary slightly based on chimney condition, accessibility, and the amount of debris.

Will chimney sweeping make a mess in my home?

No—our team uses specialist equipment designed to prevent dust and soot from entering your home. We pride ourselves on our neat, tidy, and professional service.

Do you provide certification after sweeping?

Yes. After each chimney sweep, we provide a certificate of sweeping, verifying that your chimney has been professionally cleaned and checked according to UK industry standards. This certificate is valuable for home insurance purposes.

Can you sweep all types of chimneys?

Absolutely. We sweep chimneys connected to wood-burning stoves, multifuel stoves, open fireplaces, and even gas and oil appliances. Our expertise covers all common chimney types in UK homes.
