About Dave The Sweep

I pride myself on doing a good job. All carpets and furnishings are covered and the fireplace area is sealed to ensure your room is left as clean as when I arrived. Typically it takes approximately 45 minutes to sweep a chimney. All work is completed from the base of the chimney meaning roof access is not required.

I offer free advice and can often suggest a cost effective solution to any chimney problems you may have. I work full time as a Chimney Sweep and only sweep, smoke test and inspect chimneys. I have no vested interest in chimney repairs, fitting stoves or flue liners. This ensures that any advice I give is unbiased and impartial.

An annual chimney sweep is essential to ensure the flue is clean and and free from any obstructions such as birds nests or other blockages. A clean chimney allows fumes and gases to travel up the chimney safely, reducing the risk of a chimney fire or soot fall.

If for whatever reason I am unable to sweep your chimney there will be no charge.
