Frequently Asked Questions

How often should my chimney be swept?

At least once a year for wood-burning and multi-fuel stoves — and twice a year if you burn daily through the season. Annual sweeping keeps your flue safe, keeps your appliance efficient, and is required by most home insurance policies and manufacturer warranties. Gas fires should have their flue checked and appliance serviced annually by a Gas Safe engineer.

Which areas do you cover?

All of Scotland, from our base in Croftamie by Loch Lomond — Glasgow, Stirling, Edinburgh, Perth, Ayr, Helensburgh, Dumbarton and everywhere in between. The calculator prices instantly across our standard and extended areas; further afield, our office prepares a tailored quote within 24 hours.

Do I get a certificate?

Yes — every visit ends with a dated completion certificate for your records, valid for home insurance and manufacturer warranty purposes.

Will there be any mess?

No — our in-house engineers (never subcontractors) use professional dust control and full area protection. No mess is our guarantee, and it’s the thing our reviews mention most.

How long does a chimney sweep take?

A routine sweep and service usually takes 45 minutes to an hour per appliance, including the smoke test and your completion certificate. Gas fire services take a little longer.

When is the best time of year to book?

Spring and summer — before the autumn rush. You’ll have the widest choice of dates, and your stove is ready the first cold evening you need it. September to December is our busiest period, so if you’re reading this in season, book early. You can read more about our chimney sweeping service here.
