Questions to ask local chimney sweeps before hiring

Do you have insurance?

It’s always a good idea to check that the sweep carries public liability insurance. Chimney work involves working at height, handling soot and debris, and potential fire hazards. Insurance protects both you and the professional in case of accidents or property damage.

Do you provide inspections or reports?

For older chimneys or unusual setups, it’s worth asking if they offer detailed inspections or CCTV surveys. A written report can highlight structural issues, blockages, or safety concerns, giving you peace of mind and documentation for insurance purposes.

Have you worked with my type of fireplace or stove?

Some chimney sweeps specialise in wood-burning stoves, multi-fuel stoves, or traditional open fires. Confirming experience with your type of chimney or appliance ensures the work is done correctly and efficiently.

How often should my chimney be swept or serviced?

Chimney sweeps can advise on a maintenance schedule based on the type of fuel you use and how often you burn it. Regular chimney cleaning helps prevent soot buildup, reduces the risk of chimney fires, and ensures your stove or fireplace operates efficiently.

What safety precautions do you take?

Ask about dust containment, fire prevention measures, and how they handle wildlife or obstructions. The right chimney sweep will take steps to protect your home and ensure their work complies with safety standards.

FAQ: Your questions about chimney sweeps answered

Do chimney sweeps need specific qualifications?

No, chimney sweeps aren’t legally required to hold formal qualifications, but many complete training with organisations such as HETAS, NACS, or APICS to demonstrate their competence. Choosing a chimney sweep with recognised training gives you confidence that the work meets industry best practices and safety standards. At MyBuilder, we also verify that all tradespeople, whether sole traders or companies, are properly qualified for regulated work or have the necessary expertise, which we assess through an online skills check.

How long does a chimney sweep take?

A standard chimney sweep usually takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the chimney type, buildup, and whether any additional checks are needed.

Can a chimney sweep carry out repairs?

Many chimney sweeps can handle minor repairs such as fixing liners, replacing pots, or fitting cowls. For larger structural issues, they may recommend a local roofer or stone mason.

What signs indicate my chimney needs cleaning?

Look out for smoke backing into the room, a sooty build-up around the fireplace, a strong creosote smell, or visible blockages. Any of these can indicate it’s time for a sweep.

Will a chimney sweep check for carbon monoxide risks?

While chimney sweeps focus on soot and flue safety, a proper inspection often includes checking ventilation and airflow, which helps reduce carbon monoxide risk. For gas appliances, a Gas Safe engineer may also be needed.
