The Need for Sweeping, Even with a Lined Chimney

HETAS Recommendations for Safety
HETAS recommends chimney sweeping once a year when burning smokeless fuel and every three months when burning wood. This preventive measure helps avoid the dangerous build-up of materials such as creosote, soot, and tar, as well as preventing blockages and ensuring the safe escape of gases like carbon monoxide.

Chimney Sweeping your wood burning stove or multi fuel stove in Kent
Chimney Sweeping is just another one of our services we offer. We cover all of Kent, London, and the rest of the South East.
Whether you have a wood burning stove, a log burner, multi fuel stove, or even an open fire appliance, these all need thorough and routine chimney sweeping on at least a yearly basis.Â
It’s so important to have your chimney swept to stop the risk of a chimney fire. Chimney fires are on the rise due to more and more wood burning stoves being installed and more people lighting open fires without having their chimneys swept.
In 2006, there were 10,000 fires across the UK in 2007. Since, that number has risen to 56,000. Our advice is to get the chimney swept as soon as you possibly can. Especially if you have no record of when the chimney was last swept.
