We remove nests and debris with care, check for any flue damage, and leave your chimney clear. After the visit, you'll have clear confirmation that your fireplace is safe to use.

CCTV Chimney Inspection and Survey

Worried about hard-to-spot chimney problems? Our CCTV chimney inspection and survey service uses advanced cameras to examine the entire length of the flue. Whether you need reassurance or are investigating a fault, this safe, non-intrusive service provides a clear picture.

We offer two survey types:

  • Inspection: Quick reassurance that your chimney is clear with no obvious cracks or blockages.
  • Full Survey: An in-depth investigation, complete with a written report for insurers and recommended next steps if required.

We show you the footage and discuss any findings, helping you decide on any needed repairs or safety work.

Smoke Evacuation Check

A smoke evacuation check (sometimes called a “draw test”) is an important inspection that ensures your chimney safely and efficiently pulls smoke up and away from your fireplace or stove.

We carefully introduce safe, visible smoke into the flue and monitor how effectively it rises, looking closely for any signs of back-draft, poor airflow, or potential blockages that could compromise safety.

Once the test is complete, we take time to explain the results in plain language and provide clear, practical advice on how to resolve any issues or improve performance.

From arrival and professional set-up through thorough testing to final clean-up, every stage of the service is carried out by our experienced team, leaving you fully informed, confident, and secure in the safe operation of your chimney
