Looking for reliable, hassle-free chimney maintenance?

Why choose a chimney maintenance contract?

• Peace of mind all year round: Forget last-minute bookings or missed sweep deadlines. With a contract in place, we handle scheduling, servicing, and inspections — so you don’t have to. It’s one less thing on your to-do list.
• Lower costs: Regular maintenance is the best way to avoid costly repairs. Our preventative approach helps identify issues early — before they become expensive problems or fire hazards.
• Legal and insurance compliance: Insurance companies often require proof of regular chimney maintenance, especially for properties with open fires or solid fuel appliances. Our contracts include full documentation and reports to keep you covered. For commercial premises, staying compliant with fire safety regulations is critical — and we’ve got it covered.
• Priority scheduling: Contract customers are first in line during busy periods, such as winter. You’ll get preferred appointment slots and faster turnaround times when demand is high.
• Reduced risk: A well-maintained chimney reduces the risk of carbon monoxide leaks, chimney fires, smoke damage, and poor air quality. For both homes and workplaces, safety starts with prevention.

FAQs about chimney maintenance contracts

What’s the difference between a one-off sweep and a maintenance contract?

A one-off sweep is a single service, typically booked when the chimney needs immediate attention. A maintenance contract is an ongoing plan that includes scheduled sweeps, inspections, and other benefits like priority call-outs and detailed reporting. It’s a proactive approach that helps you stay compliant and avoid costly problems down the line.

How often will my chimney be swept under a maintenance contract?

That depends on how often you use your fire or appliance. Most domestic chimneys are swept annually or bi-annually, while high-use commercial flues may require more frequent servicing. We’ll recommend a schedule based on your specific setup and usage.

Can I customise what’s included in the contract?

Absolutely. All our chimney maintenance contracts are tailored to your needs. You can choose the level of service, the number of visits per year, whether to include CCTV inspections, and more. No rigid packages — just what works for you.

Do you offer contracts for properties with multiple chimneys or sites?

Yes. Whether you manage a row of cottages, a multi-flue restaurant, or a portfolio of properties across the region, we can create a single contract that covers them all — complete with a centralised service log and flexible scheduling.

What happens if there’s a problem between scheduled visits?

Contract clients get priority access to our team for emergency call-outs and troubleshooting. If there’s a blockage, unusual smoke, or any other concern, just get in touch — we’ll be there fast.

Will I receive documentation for insurance or compliance purposes?

Yes. After each visit, you’ll receive a digital report confirming the work carried out, the condition of your chimney, and any recommendations. These reports are ideal for landlords, commercial property managers, or anyone needing proof of regular maintenance.

Can I cancel or change my contract?

We understand that things change. You can cancel or amend your contract with reasonable notice. We’re always happy to review your needs and adapt the service accordingly.
