Services
Chimney Cleaning
Our chimney cleaning service removes soot buildup and obstructions using traditional brushes and advanced vacuum systems. Each 45-minute session includes pre-cleaning inspection, dust containment measures, and post-service certification. Technicians use 35m viper rods for complete flue clearance, ensuring compliance with safety regulations while preventing fire hazards.
Chimney Liners
We install stainless steel and Furanflex liners to restore chimney functionality. Our triple-locked seam liners improve extraction efficiency while preventing gas leaks. All installations include 15-year warranties and comply with building regulations, with options for listed buildings requiring non-invasive installation methods.
Chimney Repairs
Our repair service addresses cracks, blockages, and structural issues using camera inspections to identify problems. We clear bird nests, re-point brickwork, and install cowls to prevent future obstructions. Preventative solutions include draught-proofing systems and weatherproofing measures for long-term chimney integrity.
Power Flues
Custom power flue systems extract smoke from properties without traditional chimneys. Our electrically powered units ensure optimal draft regardless of weather conditions, with automatic safety interlocks for gas appliances. Installations accommodate modern and antique fireplaces while maintaining indoor air quality.
Chimney Caps
We supply and install chimney caps to prevent downdraughts and debris ingress. Our range includes decorative yet functional models that enhance extraction while protecting against bird nesting. Caps integrate with existing flue systems to improve overall chimney performance.
