Nothing beats hardwood logs, they are by far the best fuel if burned properly and seasoned, and dry, everyone should be cutting and seasoning their own if possible, or if not support your local supplier. I'm lucky enough to live in the country where we gets loads of wind blown trees.

At 60 euros for a sweep, we are fairly competitive, (cheaper than some) given the level of service that is provided. As promised I won't be raising my prices in 2026.

Removing a bird's nest from a stove is alot of work. if you suspect you've a nest, bird activity on top of your chimney pots ,or your stove or chimney isn't drawing properly please give the information when booking so a price can be agreed, as you can see we do a camera inspection after each nest removal, to ensure it's clear. Extra Wear and tear on very expensive equipment, as well as time spent compared to a standard call out ,is the reason for the extra cost of removing a nest.

Birds nests 🐤🐤🦅🦅
Birds will be nesting in chimneys from now on folks, please note that removal of birds nests will be charged by the hour, there is no set price, the price is substantially more than a regular sweep or call out, and will differ greatly from job to job.
when your booking a call out and you don't mention a birds nest, and one is discovered ,obviously the price will have to be discussed before any work is carried out .we will reserve the right not to touch a live nest with eggs in it. As it is against the law to interfere with them. Thanks.

Some interesting tips and great advice for everyone on burning methods and good practices whilst burning solid fuels

All types of wood give about the same heat energy per kilo. The shape and size of the logs however will make a difference. Logs that are 5-6 inches wide give the best results.
