After sweeping our chimney a couple of months ago I had to call Jamie out again as we had a bird stuck in the chimney. Jamie came out quickly and retrieved and released the pigeon, would highly recommend!

Great service from Jamie. Swept two chimneys which were in dire need of it. Went through what would be needed if wanted to bring up to safety spec and recommendations. I think by the time he left both fireplaces were cleaner than when he arrived - wouldnt have known hed been. Amazing considering all the work he did. Highly affordable too.

I had Jamie over today to sweep a chimney unused for over 20 years. He was knowledgeable, considerate, on time and left the grate and surrounding area spotless despite a considerable amount of soot. Would highly recommend his services!
