Chim Me Sweep Chim Me Build

We had our chimney swept this week. The company were professional and exceptionally clean and efficient. It was easy to contact them with a prompt response. Prices are very competitive. Thank you. Will use you again.

After our chimney was damaged by our neighbours building work we got in touch with Rob at Chim-me-sweep. Right from the first visit, it was clear he was very experienced and we were in safe hands. It took several months and several visits to sort out all the issues (despite covid) but Rob helped us every step of the way with helpful advice and a can do attitude throughout. Any quote he gave was always provisional depending on what he would find, and he always charged less if the issue was more straightforward. Rob initially checked our roof, undertook a breach test to see if the mortar had been damaged, inspected the roof, cleaned the flues and safely closed the chimney down. He removed the now defunct fire surround, cleared out the debris and fitted a liner. He then recommended a wood stove manufacturer and even a stove that would fit perfectly. He measured the hearths and informed us of the size and current regulations so we could order from our chosen manufacturer with confidence. He fitted the hearths and a week later returned to fit the stove and mantlepiece he had also given us great advice on. Rob does not need to advertise because word of mouth and repeat business from satisfied customers is all the marketing he needs. From now on we will always call Rob for annual maintenance or if a problem occurs, as we know he will do a brilliant job, and be a really friendly guy in the process, going out of his way to help. We recommend him highly.

I recommend Chim-Me-Sweep very highly, I have used them for the last 4 years. Rob always calls to confirm the appointment on the day, he is clean and tidy and is always cheerful. He is more than happy to give advice if you require it. Best of all I have peace of mind that the chimney is ready for the next season.

We have used Chim-me-sweep for many years and have always found their service to be efficient and of a high quality. Robert is very approachable for advice and we’d recommend their service for anyone looking for a chimney sweep or any service relating to chimneys.

Had our chimney routinely swept last week. Fast and efficient job, no mess and very friendly service! Would highly recommend them.

I have a large, cast-iron gas stove in my lounge that gets used about 20 times a year at maximum, so I assumed that my chimney would rarely need sweeping. For this reason it hadn't been done for 25 years and I began to feel it would be sensible to have it done again. I contacted several sweeps for prices and Mr Wallace's was the lowest - and he sounded the most authoritative. Unfortunately, he had to advise that, because of changed regulations, my stove would first have to be disconnected by a qualified Gas-Safe engineer and reconnected after the chimney was swept. (This was a service he could no longer offer because his qualification had lapsed because he did not work in the gas industry.) In order to use him I had to find a suitable gas engineer - which was a bit of a struggle - but I finally managed it. However, the engineer's price was nearly twice that of Mr Wallace and for a small fraction of the work. I arranged for the stove to be disconnected and for Mr Wallace to visit on the following day. He turned up 15 minutes early (Covid-masked) and got straight down to work, taking great care not to scratch the tiling when moving the stove. The lower chimney was swept quickly and he also opened up an exterior flue panel and swept the upper part of the chimney. All debris was removed without any escape of soot or dirt. He also advised how I should inspect the chimney - to see if I actually needed to call a sweep out. Sadly, I may not need to use him again!

Robert was very friendly, carried out the work quickly and gave us great advice for the next stage of our project. He gave us a best/worst case ranged quote and the final invoice was at the lower end of the scale. He came across as very hard working and honest.

Rob has been sweeping our chimneys for a good number of years now. I don't think the price has gone up yet! He is very reliable and incredibly clean - never any mess despite it being a messy job. Very happy to recommend him.

Robert arrived on time, all PPE'd. Cleaned the chimney quickly and with no mess. Gave useful advice on the stove we've had installed since his last visit.

Rob swept both my chimneys and changed the rope on my wood burning stoves that had perished. He also advised me on the best placement for my carbon monoxide alarms. He was on time, dressed in PPE and was very professional. The stoves and hearths were spotless when he left. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and will definitely use him again.
