Chimney Sweeping for Essex, Hertfordshire, Suffolk and Cambridge
Services
Chimneys need to allow the free passage of dangerous combustion gases. Regular sweeping will remove soot, bird nests, cobwebs and other blockages. It also removes creosote, which will help to prevent dangerous chimney fires. Chimney sweeping will also increase the efficiency of some appliances. The sweep will be carried out using either the traditional rods and brushes or rotary swept using Rodstation power sweeping equipment.
If you are unsure on the condition of your chimney then a CCTV camera can be used to inspect the condition of the chimney.
A blocked chimney may result in smoke or lethal Carbon Monoxide coming into your home or even cause a chimney fire.
A “smoke test” should be carried out if you're unsure about the condition of the flue, or have been experiencing the smell of smoke within other parts of the property.
A chimney cowl is an excellent way to prevent down draft and a bird guard is a great way to stop animals nesting in your chimney.
