AP Sweeps

AP Sweeps provides chimney sweeping and related care for homes in Wollaston and across Northamptonshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and the Wellingborough area. The operator describes its service as no mess and no fuss, with sweeping available for open fires and lined or unlined log and multi-fuel burners.

A standard sweep includes a visual check of the chimney stack and pots from ground level, a full sweep, vacuuming and a smoke test to check the flue’s draw. Roof-top or internal CCTV inspection may also be needed in some cases. The business says it uses traditional methods as well as power-sweeping equipment, and issues recognised industry certificates after completed sweeps.

Alongside sweeping, AP Sweeps offers chimney repairs, pot replacement, bird-cowl fitting and removal of bird or vermin nests. Minor stove repairs and rope-seal replacement are also available. The operator states that it is fully insured and a registered member of the National Association of Chimney Sweeps, working to that association’s code of practice.

The service is suited to householders with open fires, wood-burning stoves or multi-fuel appliances who need routine sweeping, an inspection or related chimney and stove work. The operator emphasises protecting the home during the work and leaving the area clean and tidy.
