They did a great job sweeping the chimney, explaining everything answering all my questions and leaving the area cleaner than they found it. Courteous, polite and extremely professional. Highly recommend them.

Booked to have a wood burner chimney and a gas fire chimney cleaned and checked over after just moving into the house. These guys arrived on time and also with a prior text message to say they were on way and roughly what time they would arrive. I watched one of the guys complete the full clean. They have amazing specialist equipment to make sure the job is done well and cleanly. They used camera equipment to view the whole of the chimneys. Gave excellent advice and clearly very knowledgeable and scientific in their approach. True professionals you can trust.

I used SweepSmart for a chimney sweep and the whole experience was brilliant. To tick the checklist off: easy to book (people actually answered the phone and were helpful when you ring); turned up on time and texted to say they were on their way; were clean and tidy (if you’re expecting a brush up an open fireplace and soot everywhere you’re in for a disappointment); were quick (but thorough); and the follow-up was impressive ie the cert was sent via email quickly and the invoicing/ paying is easy to access. Everyone I spoke to was polite and easy to deal with too. A definite recommend.

If you're going to be gathered around the fire or stove this winter, be safe and get this inexpensive Covid-secure service first. Modern delivery of traditional chimney-sweeping; no gimmicks, just hard work and an exceptional service, with great technical advice. Digital online tracking of arrival time (Paul was, of course, on time for the appointment) and e-delivery of certification. Thank you so much, Paul - best service we have received in London in 20 years.

Couldn't be happier with the service we received from SweepSmart. From the initial phone conversation, Punctual arrival and friendly knowledgeable service carried out under full covid-19 guidelines to receiving our certificate promptly after and all for a very reasonable price. I will certainly use them for my inspection next year and I am sure for years to come. Thoroughly recommended. Just organise your sweep with them early as their expertise is clearly in demand!

A fantastic service from SweepSmart. I was kept well informed about the time of my appointment and once Paul arrived he was fast and efficient. He cleaned out the chimney, showing us the brush poking through the chimney stack on the roof. He left the hearth area spotless and used more than adequate protective equipment to prevent any dirt being left in the house. I will definitely be using him again to keep my chimney clear.

Excellent service from start to finish Paul responded quickly to make the booking and the sweep, Tony, arrived within the allocated time. We even got an email telling us when he was on his way and allowing us to track him. We had a message telling us about the extra precautions for Covid-19 and were able to follow all the guidelines such opening windows and having an extension lead ready before Tony’s arrival. Tony wore a mask and everything was carried out safely. The invoice and payment procedure is very easy.

Sweepsmart came to check the safety of my fireplace and sweep the chimney. Using their camera we found that the chimney stack had large gaps in it which means it's potentially hazardous to use (CO could seep into neighbours' flat). Sad I can't use the fireplace but so grateful to them for finding this fault and potentially preventing a tragedy! They were very professional, reliable, and have left the place spotless. They explained everything clearly and left me a certificate for the fireplace. I would highly recommend.

I was dreading having my chimney swept as I have a very white home which tends to mark at the sight of dirt. Paul arrived & layed dust sheets before even stepping in. He was polite & super tidy. He cleaned, inspected & tested the wood burner. The service was fantastic & my wood burner looks like new after a bit of TLC from Paul. He was very knowledgeable & gave a lot of helpful advice & tips to make the most of my wood burner. My only regret is not finding SweepSmart sooner. I would not hesitate in recommending them to anyone wanting a friendly & genuine tradesman.

I appreciated the telephone call about 25 minutes before their arrival to warn me of their timing. When they arrived they efficiently unloaded their equipment and set about sweeping the chimney, completing the job very efficiently in about 20 minutes or so and providing the appropriate receipts and certificates. They cleaned up after their work, including dust I had created in cleaning the grate in addition to theirs! A good service.

Paul was excellent - he was able to do a last-minute Christmas booking, and turned up on a Saturday and swept the chimneys diligently and thoroughly. He then advised me that I was having one of them swept too often. The ability to advise clients honestly and against one's own financial interests is, in my view, the hallmark of a first-rate trades-man.

Hi Paolo, thank you so much for having us, I am happy we were able to fit you in before Christmas. Honesty is always the best policy and certainly one we work to.

From assessing and sweeping the chimney to installation of our new stove, it was top quality and incredibly tidy work from Paul and team all the way. Will not hesitate to book him each year to sweep the chimney going forward, but will have to remember to get in quick as he's so busy - I think that fact alone speaks to the quality of the service.
