About

Thank you to all our customers who have left such “GLOWING” reviews.

Historically, the months between October and March have been the worst weather in the UK, but thanks to the effects of climate change, we now face an uncertain future.
Therefore, it would surely be wise to pursue any measures possible to mitigate the effects of climate change, to help ensure a more stable climate for future generations.
One proven measure to reduce emissions, is to have your appliance swept regularly and ideally, twice a year, regardless of whether it has been used only once in a year or every day.
This not only reduces emissions but improves the efficiency of your appliance, therefore making it more economical as well as reducing the risks of carbon monoxide poisoning and the build up of soot and creosote in your flue.
Your insurance may be invalidated without proof of a sweep should the unthinkable happen, even if due to an electrical fault.
Our customers' safety and wellbeing is at the heart of our philosophy.

Thank you very much for your encouraging review. Punctuality, cleanliness and efficiency are very important to us, as is the safety of our customers, hence recommending the use of a Carbon Monoxide alarm. Thank you also for highlighting the benefits of our reminder texts. As our customers have very busy lives, we feel it our obligation whenever possible, to remind customers that their appliance (be it an open fire or log burning stove) is due for a sweep.

Arrived on time, very professional customer service in every way from knowledge and answering any queries to orderly paperwork and transparent pricing. The work was completed in exactly the same way as it was scheduled to be and with practically no mess at all as all necessary precautions were taken. Would definitely recommend to others having used this service before and will be continuing to do so in the future.

Frazer was so helpful, not only with getting in and out quickly and cleaning the inherited log burner in our new house so efficiently, but also with his knowledge. He answered all of my questions on how best to use it, what to use, and how to keep it as it’s best and working well for many years to come. Thank you! We will book in for an end of season clean as well.

Outstanding Chimney Sweep

Joining happy band of customers! Nine years ago, Robert and Simon installed wood burning stove in our period property. The chimney had to be expertly angled, due proximity of walls/roofs etc., which was managed with great precision. Robert has kept our stove in good working order and swept our chimney bi-annually, since then. He is a fund of knowledge and interest and a delight to converse with. We recommend him 110 per cent!

Needed a Chimney cleaned, the first time in 15 years. The guy turned up, on time and was friendly. The job itself was done quick, clean and with no fuss. Quite a lot of dirt was removed, so really happy I had the work done. He also offered some good advice after the cleaning.

Our chimney ventilator cover was blown off during the recent storm. The chimney had no fireplace or breast inside the rooms of the house, just a supported stack in the loft. We were worried about the rain running down the inside of the chimney and soaking into the ceilings and affecting the electrics. We were given the number of Chim-Me-Sweep, Chim-Me-Build and spoke to the owner, Rob Wallace. He was very busy with calls due to all the storm damage, but somehow he found a way to fit us in on the same day. He had already asked for photos of the chimney stack so he knew that access to the stack was readily and safely available. He also explained that the old, damaged vent cover was not appropriate to keep the rain out. What was needed was a chimney cap. When he arrived, he set up his ground to roof ladder and secured it. Then he carried his roof ladder with roof hook to safely attach it to the roof spine. He warned me beforehand that if there was no pot at the top of the stack then capping it could be problematic. As soon as he reached the top he affirmed there was a pot and he immediately capped it. Job done!! Throughout the process Rob was friendly, professional and kept me up-to-date on when and if he was able to come, which put my mind at rest. His work at our house was very efficient. Honesty, efficiency, great communication and very friendly. Thanks, Rob.

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.
