Tar blockage and hard soot removal sweep

Our tar and hard soot removal service thoroughly cleans chimneys affected by heavy creosote buildup, ensuring safe and efficient operation. Using specialised tools and techniques, we remove stubborn deposits that can restrict airflow and pose a fire hazard. This deep cleaning process restores your chimney’s functionality, reducing the risk of chimney fires and improving overall performance.

If tar and/or soot have hardened within a flue, this could block the system and require additional work to return it to an optimal and safe condition.

Such blockages can not be dealt with using the normal sweeping process. Once the blockages have been removed, we will undertake a full sweep. Work will be conducted to the standards of The Guild of Master Chimney Sweeps. Once payment has been received, an insurance industry-recognised Certificate of Sweeping from The Guild of Master Chimney Sweeps will be issued.
