Brighton Chimney Ninja

Brighton Chimney Ninja provides chimney sweeping and related services across Brighton and Hove and a wider area of East and West Sussex. The business is run by Shoichi Yanagisawa, who says he has been sweeping chimneys since 2020 and is certified by the National Association of Chimney Sweeps (NACS).

Sweeping is available for open fires and solid-fuel stoves. Traditional brushes, rods and vacuum equipment are used, as well as rotary power-sweeping systems; the method is selected to suit the flue. The service removes soot and debris, and a chimney certificate can be issued after a sweep for insurance purposes.

For problems that are not readily visible, CCTV inspections use a camera in the flue to help assess damage and provide evidence for repair or insurance purposes. The website also describes advice on maintaining chimneys between sweeps, and services for wood-burning fireplaces and modern stoves.

The business serves homes and businesses, with its stated coverage including Brighton and Hove, Lewes, Shoreham, Worthing and other nearby towns and villages. Customer testimonials describe thorough work, careful clean-up and a friendly, professional manner.
