Great service from beginning to end. Extremely efficient and friendly. Arrived on time. Brought all necessary protective sheets etc and left place clean and tidy. No mess at all.

Top‑Notch Chimney Service
A top‑notch chimney service with clear, friendly communication. From the moment I booked, the team kept me fully informed about what to expect. Their messages were concise yet thorough, and I received friendly SMS reminders ahead of the appointment—so I never had to wonder when they’d arrive. The sweep arrived right on schedule, fully equipped and ready to go. They worked efficiently, and what impressed me most was the attention to detail. Overall, the blend of reliable service, crystal‑clear communication, punctual arrival, and immaculate cleanup makes this chimney‑sweep service stand out. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking a hassle‑free, professional chimney cleaning experience.

There's almost nothing here to review - it was one of the most straightforward trade bookings I've experienced. We booked online - very easy - and they turned up in the window they said, with reminders and more detail nearer the date, and then when they were on their way. Job was done very quickly and neatly. I liked the certificate they give you online where you can see a photo of the flue, as well as evidence of the smoke test.

I had a new homeowner inspection carried out for my fireplace by SweepSmart; including a chimney sweep. The team that attended (Paul and Mason) were very professional and friendly. They arrived promptly and as scheduled. The inspection was carried out in a very clean and tidy manner; and Paul gave great advice on the use of the fireplace with a demo. The booking process was quick and easy; and payment can be made easily by card after the job. Great service and very happy. Looking forward to making use of the fireplace this winter. Will definitely book the next chimney sweep with SweepSmart when due and would recommend them to others. Thanks again!

A Job Well Done

Sweepsmart was recommended to me by a long standing customer. Booking was easy, the sweep arrived within the given timings, with an arrival time text sent. I was having a chimney swept after a very long time. The sweep set up, carried out the task professionally, showed me what had been done and cleared up everything. I was very pleased with all aspects of the job. Cost was appropriate for the task; I paid through their online link. Thank you.

We asked SweepSmart to sweep the chimney for our open fire and the chimney for a our wood burner. They turned up early within the window identified. They were fast and did a quality job on both chimneys. Both were polite and helpful with any questions we had and left the areas clean and tidy. Really happy with the price and the service provided. Will definitely use again.

First time of a chimey sweep experience. Preconceived ideas of dirty-faced men dancing and singing on my roof. Reality: friendly, efficient, quick and clean service. I could not believe how easy the whole process was. Will definitely be using SweepSmart again and recommend anyone with a chimney to do the same!

Thank you Paul for doing an amazing job cleaning my chimney today. Paul arrived at the time pre-arranged. He was thorough in his cleaning and highly knowledgeable regarding my stove. The property was left as clean as it was before his arrival. Paul took time to explain efficentcy of my stove and how to get the best out of it. Paul was very polite and approachable to questions I had for him. I will certainly use his services again and would highly recommend him to others. Booking paul was straight forward. The lady I spoke with for the booking put me at ease and made me feel this is a good company to use. Again very friendly. Payment was easy and straight forward. Certificate issued via email. A very good experience. Thank you all that were involved

Sweep Smart did a very efficient job of cleaning my chimney ready for the winter months. They were prompt and got to work immediately. As promised they screened up the fireplace so the job created no mess at all. It was easy to contact them and book the appointment. I will definitely be using their services again in the future and highly recommend them.

Have used Sweepsmart for our annual chimney sweep for the last white a few years. Always very efficient from start to finish. Booking is easy with responsive office staff, 2-3hour time slots are excellent for helping plan your day. Even better is the text on the day to say when they are on the way. On arrival Paul and co always work hard to ensure minimal mess or disruption. Apart from a sparkly clean stove you wouldn’t even know they’ve been in your home! Sound and friendly advice on the efficiency of the stove, no attempt to upsell to earn extra money (I asked about the broken firebrick and was reassured it was fine rather than pushed to replace it). Competitive rates and, if you wish, you’re able to pay there and then to get it off your to-do list. Oh, and invoicing and certification is provided promptly by email so you have the paperwork needed for insurance etc. Top notch as always and thoroughly recommend.

I have used Sweepsmart for a number of years and trust them implicitly with the quality of their work. Communication from the Company, at all stages, is brilliant. Sweepsmart is a reliable, excellent service and reasonable priced with no hidden costs. I asked for a new stove pipe for my woodburner to be installed as well as my chimney swept. Tony and James were friendly, professional and knowledgeable and did an excellent quality job. If you need your chimney swept, or anything else to do with fires, I seriously recommend contacting Sweepsmart.

Service above and beyond, from the first moment of booking through to completion of the job. Great communication, very customer oriented.
As soon as submitting an enquiry on the automated online booking system, I received an acknowledgement followed shortly thereafter by a 'phone call to confirm the booking. I was sent a reminder two days before the visit, then an actual time slot the evening before. Paul and his colleague arrived bang on time, even though I live right in the centre of London and parking is tricky. Both were very respectful of the space -- careful navigating their bulky kit through the house -- and did an extremely tidy job, with helpful explanations of what they were doing throughout. Paul then went above and beyond by sending a camera up the chimney flue to investigate an issue raised by a neighbour, doing a smoke test and climbing onto the roof to check all was in order. He diagnosed the likely issue right away. I could not recommend SweepSmart and the service that its team provides more highly. Superb!

The team was extremely professional. Took great care of my property and explained everything as they went along. Unfortunately/luckily they discovered problems with my flue ( A DIY job done before my time here) so they could not sweep. But gave a full report, photos, and recommendations. Would happily use again and highly recommend.

They first visited in July to sweep the chimney but advised that we needed to fit access panels to do the job safely. Returned in mid august to conduct that remediation work and they were so efficient and careful that it wasn’t obvious that they’ve visited! Kept me advised throughout the work what they were found and were able to reduce the cost a little by taking a slightly different approach. Very professional, courteous and time efficient.
