Chimney Sweeping & Repairs In Sunderland

Our Chimney sweeping service is to a high standard. Here is how our process is broken down.

Assessment:

• The chimney sweep begins by assessing the condition of the chimney, looking for any blockages, creosote build up, or structural issues.

Preparation:

• Before starting the sweep, the area around the fireplace is prepared. This may involve laying down dust sheets to protect the surrounding area from soot.​

Sweeping:

• Using a combination of brushes, rods, and a vacuum, the chimney sweep works from the bottom of the chimney to the top, dislodging and removing soot and debris.

Clean-Up:

• Once the sweeping is complete, the area around the fireplace is thoroughly cleaned. This includes vacuuming up any remaining soot and ensuring that the space is left in a tidy condition.

Documentation:

• The chimney sweep provides a certificate or documentation detailing the work carried out. This is often required for insurance purposes and serves as proof that the chimney has been properly maintained.

Recommendations:

• If any issues or potential hazards are identified during the sweep, the chimney sweep may provide recommendations for repairs or improvements to ensure the safety and efficiency of the chimney.
