Sitting by the dancing flames of a real fire in a toasty warm home is one of life's pleasures but did you realise that a dirty chimney could be costing you money and be potentially dangerous? Specialists in Chimney Sweeping, Bird Nest Removal, Fireplace and Fire Installation and other aspects of building work. Qualified electrician work also carried out. A blocked chimney can cause damp and a partially blocked chimney if being used by gas or solid fuel can cause carbon monoxide.
Services
Cardiff born and bred, I started out in the coal trade and delivery business, amassing a knowledge of solid fuels as well as really getting to know the nooks and crannies of South East Wales, the area where I've worked for my whole adult life. My industry knowledge led me to set up Cardiff Chimney Sweeps, a family run business providing a friendly, courteous and professional service.
Why do I need to have my chimney/ flue swept? Chimney sweeping helps allow the free passage of dangerous combustion gases and reduces the risk of chimney fires. It can also help improve the efficiency of your burner and help prevent damp. How often do I need to get my chimney swept? Your chimney can become blocked with soot and creosote, bird nests, cobwebs and other blockages, which is why chimneys should be swept frequently.

Some of the best service I have ever received. We had an emergency at home involving Carbon Monoxide and there was no availability for log burners to be checked anywhere across Cardiff. Spoke to Martyn and he sorted it out the very next day for me as a matter of urgency. Unbelievable service and will now only use these guys in future

Martyn came out at short notice to survey the chimney stacks on our recently purchased house. He quickly identified the issues, was very knowledgeable and, despite being unbelievably busy, managed to squeeze us in to get the work done to a high standard (rebuilding a missing part of a chimney stack) and for a reasonable price.
Dan also did a great job sweeping our chimneys.
Thank you both. We are very grateful. Highly recommend and will be using them again for future work!

How can someone charge different prices for different people? I have friends that gets charged £60 I’ve had exactly the same services as my friends but I was charged £70? Why is this? I just feel that I’ve been taken advantage of because I’m a single mother with 5 children! I wouldn’t recommend these to ANYBODY!!!

Really pleased with the installation of our Wooly Mammoth 5 Widescreen multi fuel stove. Love the heat it generates. Martyn and Brian did a really quick installation keeping to time and were friendly and… helpful and very knowledgeable. Really good value. Would highly recommend. I love my wood burner! More photos to follow once I’ve finished decorating!

Martyn was very professional and friendly, no hassle with booking for an appointment to have my chimney sweep done. Dan who came with another man were good at their job, kept the place tidy & cleaned up afterwards, also gave me advice about chimney caps. Would definitely use their service again in the future!
