1st Chimney Sweep is a fully-qualified professional chimney sweeping business run by me, Graham Pugh, from St Martins, Oswestry. As a Member of the Institute of Chimney Sweeps and issue a recognised certificate with every sweep. And I specialise in clean chimney sweeping that does not leave a mess in your house and leaves your chimney clean as a whistle.
Blockages are common in chimneys and if they are not cleared they can lead to serious problems. Problems such as chimney fires and carbon monoxide filling up your house can endager the lives of you and your family. During sweeping it's common for the brush to not pass smoothly up the chimney and when this happens I can use Closed Circuit Television camera to check any obstruction. The specialised camera is passed up the chimney on the cleaning rods so I can see the cause of any blockage. Once the blockage is detected and cleared I send the camera up a second time to make sure it has been cleared.
Chimney sweeping does not have to be a dirty business and my methods eliminate the dirt and soot you might expect. I use the latest techniques to give your chimney a thorough clean sweep then remove everything that comes down without creating any mess. My work is backed by the Institute of Chimney Sweeps and I can issue certificates recognised by your house insurance.
