Household insurance policies usually require a certificate of sweeping for homes with working chimneys in order to keep your policy valid.
Chimney sweep certificates are only to be issued by sweepers that are backed by an official chimney sweeping association (e.g. the Institute of Chimney Sweeps).
Sweeping the chimney yourself will not grant your chimney the required certificate and will likely invalidate your insurance policy.
If your chimney is showing any of the below signs, it’s usually because you will require a chimney sweep.
- Smoke is being blown back into the room.
- There is a bad smell even when you haven’t lit a fire.
- You can see signs of tar around the damper or flue entrance.
- Soot is frequently falling back into your stove or fire.
- Your fire isn’t burning as well as usual.
A chimney camera inspection is great way to identify any issues with your fireplace, and it’s always a good idea to have your fireplace and chimney checked out.
- Your chimney flue may not be functioning correctly and you need to know why.
- In older buildings you wish to know the extent of the deterioration of your flue
- You want to have a new chimney liner installed but are not sure if the size of the flue or the configuration will allow you to have the required size of liner
- You have a blockage that needs to be investigated before a removal plan can be put in place. Chimneys can become blocked for a variety of reasons, including birds’ nests, dislodged masonry, soot deposits, or problems arising from other building works on the property, therefore correct planned removal of the blockage is essential.
- If you have had a chimney fire, the damage may need to be assessed
