CHIMNEY CLEANING

At SGS Lakeland we feel it is imperative to get your chimney cleaned regularly, whether it is a stove, log burner, solid-fuel burner, open fire or even just an open chimney breast.

We also offer chimney liner installation, ideal for improving safety, efficiency, and the longevity of your heating system.

At SGS Lakeland, we take pride in delivering a friendly, reliable, and tidy service. Get in touch today to book your chimney sweep or to find out more about our full range of chimney and flue services.

The Hidden Dangers of a Dirty Chimney

Why Regular Chimney Sweeping Could Save Your Home — and Your Life

Chimney Fire Risk

Over 7,000 chimney fires occur annually in the UK. Most caused by creosote build-up in unswept flues.

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Blocked flues can lead to deadly CO buildup.

Tip: Install a carbon monoxide alarm and sweep regularly.

Reduced Stove Efficiency

Soot buildup reduces airflow, making your stove burn more fuel to heat less.

Tip: Clean chimneys = better heat, less wood.

Legal & Insurance Implications

Many home insurance policies require proof of regular chimney maintenance.

Tip: A sweep certificate can protect you in case of a claim.

Signs You’ve Waited Too Long

Smoke backing into room
