Why use Chim Chimney chimney sweeps? There is no requirement for anyone to have any formal training as a chimney sweep, many people start up as a chimney sweep with no experience and very little equipment. I have completed a 4 day training course with the guild of master sweeps, covering chimney sweeping, pots, cowls and build regulations.
There are different sized flues in chimneys, some are lined with flexible metal liners, clay liners, concrete liners or just a standard brick construction and all of these different types of flues need the correct sized brushes and correct rods to sweep them otherwise the flue might be damaged.
I have the correct equipment and have done a 5 year apprenticeship with a 3rd generation chimney sweep who has over 30 years experience himself, this knowledge has been passed on to me and you will in turn benefit by having your chimney cleaned properly, with the correct equipment and with the minimum of disruption.How is the work done?

Carbon Monoxide
Report
Carbon monoxide is a poisonous gas that has no smell or taste. Breathing it in can make you unwell, and it can kill. Some people think solid fuel doesn't produce Carbon monoxide, I assure you IT DOES. Solid fuel i.e Smokeless fuel and wood DO produce carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide (CO) is sometimes referred to as the "silent killer".
Woodburning
Report
If you are burning wood, please ensure it is well seasoned, any water in the timber has to boil away before the wood will burn, and this will reduce the net energy released as useful heat (as opposed to steam up the chimney). If you can get them to light at all, logs that aren't dry will result in a fire that smoulders and creates lots of tars and smoke.
