The Sweeping Process:
-
Somesh guarantees to leave your home in the same condition than he finds it
-
Dust sheets are taped up to entirely block off the chimney and stove/fireplace so no soot escapes into your home
-
Sheets are laid over your valuable furniture/carpet to prevent dirt entering your home whilst moving equipment in & out
-
An industrial high power vacuum sucks up any debris in the air, which allows safe breathing during and after the sweep
-
Chimney is thoroughly swept with appropriate brushes, all soot & debris is contained, then cleared from your room
-
Stove doors will be cleaned
-
The fireplace will be left clean and tidy

Chimney Sweeping Safety & Advice
Recommendations from Fire Brigade Service and Hetas on keeping your fire safe are below.
-
Solid Fuel appliances: Smokeless fuels: Once a year
-
Solid Fuel appliances: Domestic bituminous coal: At least twice yearly
-
Wood Burning Stoves/appliances: Every three months when in use
-
Oil Appliances: Once a year plus checking by an Oftec Technician
-
Gas Appliances: Once a year plus checking by a Gas Safe Technician
Note: these recommendations are based on average usage and each households use differs dramatically depending on the fuel used and the stoves/fireplace design. Once your fireplace is swept by us we will advise you on frequency of sweeping.
