Finding a local chimney sweep

Whether you have an open fireplace, a wood-burning stove or a multi-fuel stove, start by finding a chimney sweep who covers your area and works with your type of appliance. Use The Chimney Sweep Directory to explore local businesses, read their service details and contact them directly about a visit.

Match the service to your chimney

When enquiring about chimney cleaning, tell the sweep what you burn, the type of fire or stove you have and when the chimney was last swept, if known. If you also need a chimney inspection, bird nest removal or help with a chimney cowl, ask whether they offer that service and what the visit includes.

Compare before you book

Confirm the total price, availability and any access requirements before booking. Ask about insurance, relevant training or trade association membership, and whether a sweeping certificate is included. Check these details directly with the business so you know what to expect on the day.

Plan your next sweep

Ask your sweep how often your particular chimney and appliance should be serviced, taking account of the fuel you use and how regularly you light the fire. Keep a record of the visit and any advice given, and ask what preparation is needed for your next appointment.
