Chimney Sweep
Chimneys must be swept at least once a year to remove the build up of soot and creosote. This build up is the main cause of chimney fires. We carry Rodtech Power sweeping equipment as standard. This is an addition to the traditional equipment of rods and brushes which has worked for the past 150 years. The correct rods and brushes are chosen that best suit the particular flue type, as incorrect brushes/rods may damage the flue.
Typical Process
A special sheet is placed in front of the chimney or stove.
The opening is sealed using specialized foam inserts.
A modern high tech vacuum with ‘HEPA’ filters is inserted to prevent any soot from entering the room.
The flue, smoke chamber and fireplace are then carefully and thoroughly cleaned, mostly from the bottom up, using the Rodtech power sweeping system.
The Rodtech power sweeping system is unique as it removes the creosote from the lining of the chimney flue. This build up of creosote is the main cause of chimney fires.
We are Fully insured and trained.
The big advantage with this system is that there is no mess!
