Hardened deposits block airflow and increase fire potential.
Burning wood or coal produces a residue that can harden over time if sweeps are missed. The chimney narrows, leading to weaker drafts and smoky rooms. In worst-case scenarios, the dried creosote can catch fire, putting your entire home at risk. Traditional manual brushes sometimes don’t create enough friction to dislodge these stubborn buildups, requiring multiple attempts or additional treatments.
Continuing with partial fixes only extends the frustration. You might light your stove and realize an hour later that there’s still a soot smell or hazy air. The solution lies in a technique that can reach every inch of the flue with consistent strength.
High-speed brushes that tackle tough creosote more effectively.
Clean Sweep Chimneys uses rotary sweeping equipment for clients in Pontefract who face persistent or heavy soot layers. This system rotates flexible rods with a specialised brush head that spins rapidly, scraping off deposits in a uniform manner. The rotating action applies even pressure around the flue, breaking up caked-on creosote. We collect the loosened debris using dust sheets and a vacuum, ensuring minimal mess.
Rotary sweeping benefits:
Call our office or request online. We’ll discuss your chimney’s history, last sweep date, and any big soot issues. If rotary sweeping seems suitable, we schedule a visit.
Our technician lays out protective sheets around your fireplace or stove entrance. A vacuum is positioned for immediate debris collection.
The rods spin inside the flue, scraping hardened soot from the lining. We move systematically from bottom to top, removing buildup thoroughly.
After the sweep, we do a quick test or check for leftover residue. You receive tips on proper fuel usage, burning techniques, and recommended intervals for future sweeps.
“I’d tried chemical logs before, but my chimney still smelled. The rotary method cleared everything in one go.”
“They arrived on time, explained the process, and the difference in draw is noticeable. So happy I chose rotary.”
“Professional, efficient, and my living room was left neat and tidy afterward.”
It can be slightly higher due to specialized tools, but it often saves money if your chimney has significant buildup by avoiding repeated visits.
We inspect the liner first. If it’s stable, we adjust the brush speed. If we sense structural issues, we’ll recommend repairs rather than proceed at full speed.
Clearing out loose ash or debris is helpful, but our technician can handle standard prep once on-site.
