The 1st red card of the year. Stove pipe fitted into an 8″ clay chimney. The stove pipe has been fitted incorrectly and only goes up around 1 meter in to the chimney, this poor fitting can cause Carbon Monoxide and smoke leakage into the home causing many health issues including potential death.

Essex & Suffolk Sweeps are based in London and Essex but cover all surrounding areas from Woodbridge in Suffolk right through to Kent.  We do not contract any work out and all works undertaken will be carried out by a certified and fully insured member of the Guild of Master Chimney Sweeps.  By choosing Essex & Suffolk Sweeps to service your chimney, you can be sure that you will receive a professional, dependable and friendly service.

Chimney Sweeping should be carried out regularly to remove the build up of soot, creosote and other debris which are deposited from the fuel you are burning on your stove or in your fires. It is this build-up which could potentially cause a chimney fire. How often your chimney should be swept is dependent on what fuel you are burning.
