If you burn wood or coal fires in your home, you are at risk from chimney fires and if you have a thatched home, the consequences of this are unthinkable. That's why it makes sense to have your chimney regularly swept by a professional chimney sweep.

Soot and Sweep, Chimney Sweeps of Ottery St Mary, Devon have had many years experience with sweeping a wide variety of chimney types and have the expertise to make sure that you can enjoy your fireplace in safety.

As Chimney Sweeps we clean:

• The chimneys of open fires
• The flues for other heating systems and cooking appliances.

Our work helps to reduce the risks of chimney fires and the emission of dangerous fumes. Additionally, we also have expert knowledge of:

• The safe operation and maintenance of chimneys and appliances.

Here at Soot and Sweep we bring all our own equipment to a job. To clean a chimney, we:

• Insert a suitable brush and push it through the length of the chimney using extending rods, until all soot and debris is removed.
• Use an industrial vacuum cleaner to remove soot and debris from the chimney base/fireplace, opening or heating appliance
• Advise you about any potential hazards and faults in regarded to your chimney.
