Chimney Sweeping Services for Open Fires, Stoves and more….
Our professional chimney sweeping service helps keep your chimney, stove and fireplace clean, safe and working efficiently. Using modern power sweeping equipment, we thoroughly remove built-up soot, creosote and other debris from the flue while taking great care to keep your home clean throughout the process.
We sweep chimneys connected to wood-burning stoves, multi-fuel stoves, open fires and other solid-fuel appliances. Regular chimney sweeping can help reduce the risk of chimney fires, improve airflow and ensure smoke and combustion gases are safely carried away from your home.
Following the sweep, we carry out a smoke test to check the draw and operation of the chimney. A Chimney Sweeping Certificate is also issued for your records.
Clifford’s Chimney Sweeping Services provides a friendly, reliable and fully insured service throughout Kildare, Dublin and surrounding counties, with every job completed carefully and professionally.
CCTV Flue Inspections for Insurance, Damage Repair and more…
Not every chimney problem can be identified simply by looking up the flue. Our CCTV Flue Inspection service provides a detailed internal view of your chimney using specialist camera equipment, allowing us to investigate problems that may otherwise remain hidden.
A CCTV inspection can help identify bird nesting material, soot and debris build-up, damaged or deteriorating flue liners, obstructions and other potential issues affecting the safe operation of your chimney or stove.
This service can be particularly useful where there are unexplained smoke problems, poor chimney draw, recurring blockages or concerns about the condition of an existing flue. It can also provide additional peace of mind when moving into a property with a chimney or stove whose maintenance history is unknown.
We carefully inspect the internal flue and explain any issues discovered, helping you understand the condition of your chimney and what action, if any, should be considered.
Bird Nest Removal – Safe, Clean and Hassle Free
Bird nests can create serious chimney blockages, restricting airflow and preventing smoke and combustion gases from escaping correctly. Our Bird Nest Removal service is designed to safely clear nesting materials, twigs, feathers and associated debris from blocked chimneys and flues.
Using professional chimney sweeping equipment, we work carefully to remove the obstruction and clear the flue as thoroughly as possible. Once the nesting material has been removed, the chimney can be checked to help ensure that airflow has been restored and that no significant blockage remains.
Signs of a possible nest can include poor chimney draw, debris falling into the fireplace, unusual sounds from the chimney or smoke entering the room when the fire or stove is in use.
Where appropriate, we can also use CCTV flue inspection equipment to investigate the extent or position of a blockage and check the internal flue following removal.
Emergency Chimney Callouts from the Chimney Care Experts
Some chimney problems cannot wait for a routine appointment. Our Emergency Chimney Callout service provides priority assistance for homeowners experiencing urgent chimney, stove or flue problems that require professional assessment.
Typical callouts can include smoke unexpectedly entering the home, suspected chimney blockages, sudden loss of chimney draw, fallen debris or concerns that a chimney or flue is no longer operating correctly.
We assess the immediate problem, investigate the likely cause and advise on the safest and most appropriate next steps. Depending on the issue, this may involve chimney sweeping, blockage removal or a CCTV flue inspection to identify problems that cannot be seen externally.
Our priority is always the safe operation of your chimney and appliance. Clifford’s Chimney Sweeping Services provides a professional, fully insured local service, helping homeowners resolve urgent chimney problems quickly while receiving clear, practical advice about any additional work that may be required.
