Q&A with your local Dorset chimney sweep specialist Jim Chim-in-ey.

Why should I have my chimney swept?

Sweeping helps prevent chimney fires by removing soot, bird nests, cobwebs & creosote. It also ensures a clear passage for dangerous gasses to escape.

How often does my chimney need sweeping?

Fuel, soot quality & quantity all affect the amount of sweeps required.

As a general rule . . . Smokeless fuel: Once a year, Wood & Coal: Quarterly when in use.

How messy is sweeping my chimney?

There is no mess! The opening is sealed off with the surrounding area protected with double tight knit sheets. I also use a professional HEPA Filter Vacuum that has a 99.997% filtration efficiency rating.

How long does a sweep take?

A usual sweep can take between one and two hours.

What area do you cover?

I cover all of Dorset. Including Bournemouth, Poole, Ferndown, Blanford Forum, Wimborne and Salisbury.

How much is a sweep?

£47.00 per sweep

£42.50 per sweep for two or more appliances in the same property.

£42.50 per sweep when you share your booking with a neighbor in the same postcode.

Best Wishes
