Chimney sweeping
Our professional chimney sweeping service removes soot and creosote buildup, preventing dangerous blockages and ensuring safe operation. Using industry-standard brushes and HEPA-filtered vacuums, we clean flues thoroughly while minimising mess. Regular maintenance extends chimney lifespan and maintains optimal airflow for heating appliances.
Stove installation
We specialise in HETAS-certified installations of wood burning and multi-fuel stoves. Our process includes chimney assessment, register plate fitting, and flue connection. We ensure compliance with building regulations while optimising heat efficiency and safety for residential properties.
Chimney lining
Our stainless steel liner installations restore structural integrity to damaged chimneys. We offer flexible and rigid options suitable for various fuel types, ensuring proper gas evacuation and improved heating efficiency while meeting current safety standards.
Bird guard fitting
We install durable stainless steel bird guards to prevent nesting while maintaining proper flue ventilation. Our solutions protect against blockages caused by debris and wildlife without compromising chimney performance or aesthetic requirements.
CCTV inspections
Using high-resolution camera equipment, we conduct internal chimney inspections to identify cracks, leaks, or blockages. This non-invasive diagnostic tool helps determine necessary repairs and ensures accurate quotations for restoration work.
