I issue a certificate for every sweep. By ensuring your chimney is properly swept and maintained you significantly reduce the risk of chimney fires, house fires and carbon monoxide poisoning. Once I have swept and assessed your chimney or appliance a certificate will be issued proving that your chimney was swept by a fully insured & competent sweep, a member of the Guild of Master Chimney Sweeps. The certificate is recognised by all major insurance companies.
It is important to burn dry, seasoned wood to ensure your fire is efficient, economic, and as environmentally friendly as possible.

What Wood to Burn
Unseasoned or damp wood releases much less heat when burnt because a lot of the energy is wasted removing the water. The smoke created from this doesn’t burn in the wood burner or fireplace, therefore when it goes up your chimney it sticks to the sides causing your chimney to tar up.
Hardwood is best in your stove because it burns slower, therefore gives out more heat for longer per log. The density of softwood is around half that of hardwood which results in it burning twice as fast, meaning you will need twice as much!
You can dry your wood in a wood store or you can buy seasoned logs from your supplier. Your wood should contain no more than 20% moisture.
