Chimney Sweep

As an experienced Chimney Sweep, we have a wealth of knowledge in chimney cleaning of all kinds of chimneys and new flue systems. We not only know what it takes to clean your chimney, we can test and solve most chimney problems too. Our fully trained Chimney Sweep in Reading works in all the surrounding areas and across Berkshire.

We have Guild of Master Sweep trained sweeps and HETAS registered chimney engineers and sweeps.

And we’re members of ‘Sweep Safe’ – The UK Chimney Sweep Association, who provide a register of local Sweep Safe Approved, Experienced and Insured Chimney Sweeps.

So if you have a open fire or a wood/multi-fuel stove, we can clean the appliance and chimney.

We will issue a certificate with every sweep we do with an industry standard certificate from the Guild of Master Sweeps.

Chimney sweeping with our Chimney Sweep Service

Key Services

Our Chimney Sweep services employ:

  • Modern method cleaning using the rod tech rotary system for all types of chimneys
  • We use the whole viper system for all stainless steel flexi and twinwall manufactured systems


Our chimney cleaning services are suitable for all traditional chimneys including Open Wood and Coal Fires, Wood and Log Burner flues, Gas Fire Flues and Aga and Range Cooker Flues. 

Complete sweep and vacuum

We employ the rotary power sweeping system using mechanical rotary brushes. We’ll then undertake soot vacuum cleaning to remove the residual soot afterwards. We have a strict procedure on entering a customers property. We make sure we leave your home in the same condition as we found it. You will not know we have been. Apart from the fact that your chimney will be expertly cleaned, of course!

Smoke test and Draw testing

Our smoke pressure test checks the integrity of your chimney structure ensuring there are no leaks. This is particularly important if you’re not using a liner. We’ll also test the appliance and chimney/flue for draw, making sure the smoke leaves the appliance correctly and safely.

Bird and vermin nest removal

We can remove all different kind of animal nest from your chimney, clearing all debris and twigs. Please note, we cannot remove nests during the breeding season if there are eggs in the nest.

CCTV inspection

This is a good way of seeing what condition your chimney or liner is in. Also the CCTV inspection will help find any damages and blockages inside your chimney.

Insurance company approved certificate

We supply you with a certificate once cleaning has been completed. Our certificates are approved by insurance companies.

Cowls and bird guards supplied and fitted

We can supply you a wide range of caps, cowls and bird guards. We also offer a fitting service.

Advice on fuel types
