Professional sweeping to remove soot, creosote, and blockages. Essential for safe operation and required by most home insurers. We sweep all flue types — open fires, woodburners, multi-fuel stoves, and Aga flues.
HETAS-certified installation from start to finish. We handle everything — flue lining, hearth preparation, stove fitting, and commissioning. All work is registered with HETAS and notified to your local authority.
High-definition CCTV camera surveys of your flue to identify cracks, blockages, bird nests, damaged liners, or structural issues — providing a complete picture of your chimney's condition before any work begins.
Supply and fitting of chimney pots to improve draw, redirect wind, and protect the flue from rain ingress. The right pot makes a genuine difference to how your stove performs on a still day.
Prevention is far cheaper than cure. We fit quality bird guards and cowls to stop jackdaws, starlings, and debris from blocking your flue — a common cause of dangerous carbon monoxide build-up.
Smoke pressure tests to confirm your flue is smoke-tight and performing correctly — particularly important after new liner installations, building work, or if you're buying or selling a property.
All completed work comes with the relevant safety documentation. Sweep certificates for your insurer, HETAS installation certificates registered with building control, and condition reports for property sales.
From repointing and flaunching to full liner replacements and stack rebuilds — we diagnose and repair chimney defects properly, using the right materials for a long-lasting result.
A yearly chimney sweep isn't just good practice — for most home insurance policies, it's a requirement. Skip it, and you risk invalidating your cover, blocking your flue, and worse.
Carbon monoxide is called the silent killer for a reason. A blocked or cracked flue can leak it into your home without any warning. One service a year is all it takes to sleep soundly.
— The ChimChim Standard
HETAS is the official body for solid fuel heating in the UK. Using a HETAS-registered installer isn't just about quality — it's about compliance, safety, and protection.
A HETAS installer can self-certify the installation and notify building control on your behalf — no need to pay for a separate building notice or inspector visit.
Insurers and mortgage lenders increasingly require HETAS certification. Without it, your installation may be uninsurable and your policy void in the event of a fire.
Every HETAS engineer has completed accredited training and is regularly assessed. You're not gambling on someone who watched a YouTube video.
All new solid fuel appliance installations must comply with Building Regulations. A HETAS installer ensures your installation is fully legal and protected.
