Fireplace Servicing

To ensure you always enjoy an efficient burning fireplace, we recommend that a standard service be carried out once a year.

What needs to be checked:

• Fireplace rope seals
• Condition of Firebrick linings
• Remove scaling from cast iron and/or steel Firebox, baffle etc. and touch up firebox/baffle with Stove heat resistant spray
• Cleaning of accessible flue/chimney passages
• Check operation of grate if applicable
• Check operation of air control mechanisms

Did you know that a build-up of creosote can not only hinder the efficiency of your chimney or flue, it can also be a fire hazard?

Build-up on the smoke shelf of an open fireplace of the chimney can combust by a spark causing an uncontrolled fire.  Alternatively if you have a slow combustion stove – insert or freestanding, a build-up of soot and creosote in the flue can cause the same fire hazard.

Blockages such as birds/nests and creosote also prevent the flue / chimney from drawing efficiently which in turn can fill your room with smoke.

We recommend that you have your chimney swept at least every second year.
