Hotel chimney sweeping services we offer

Our team provides comprehensive chimney services tailored to the hospitality sector.

Whether you have log burners in guest suites or traditional open fireplaces in a listed property, we’ve got you covered.

• Single and multi-flue sweeping: We sweep everything from single open fireplaces to complex flue systems across large hotels or historic properties. Each sweep includes a thorough inspection to identify blockages, damage or build-up.
• Log burner and biomass system sweeping: Wood-burning stoves and biomass boilers require regular sweeping to run efficiently and safely. We clean and maintain these systems in line with manufacturer and legal guidelines.
• Gas appliance flue maintenance: Even if the fire isn’t real, the risk can be. We inspect and clean flues serving gas fires in hotel rooms or lounges to ensure proper ventilation and reduce carbon monoxide risk.
• Chimney inspections and reports: For peace of mind — or when required for insurance or renovation purposes — we provide detailed CCTV chimney inspections and condition reports.

Who we work with

We’ve worked with hospitality businesses of all shapes and sizes.

Whether you run a boutique B&B or a multi-storey hotel, we bring the same level of care, consistency, and compliance to every job.

• Hospitality businesses with on-site staff accommodation
• Boutique hotels and B&Bs
• Historic inns and listed buildings
• Large commercial hotels and chains
• Country manors and wedding venues

How often should hotel chimneys be swept?

Staying compliant means sweeping at the right intervals — and knowing when your flues were last checked.

We help you stay up to date and avoid unnecessary risk.

• Quarterly – for wood and biomass
• Twice a year – for coal
• Annually – for gas appliances (if a chimney is present)

Not sure when yours was last done? We’re happy to advise or carry out a one-off inspection.
