If a firefighter gave you advice, do we say, ‘Well, he would, wouldn’t he? That’s his job.’ No! We respect the professional advice given by the fire service. Yes, James the Sweep wants to sweep your chimney. Yes, it’s his ‘job’. However, why does he choose chimney sweeping as his job? For the simple reason that he’s passionate about protecting people’s lives from unsafe indoor fire set-ups. Who would you rather see at your front door? A chimney sweep or a firefighter? The sweep, of course! Prevention is always better than cure.

Chimney sweeping is a very serious profession. If your chimney is not swept regularly, you and your family could die. It’s a blunt but true fact. Fire gases need a safe passage away from the indoor fire and out to the atmosphere. If the chimney is unclean with soot residue blockages, that stops carbon monoxide leaving. The invisible gas will roll back down the flue and back down inside your home. Read more here about the dangers of carbon monoxide.
