Why Do You Need Your Chimney Swept?

A well-maintained chimney performs at its best, while a neglected chimney can be a safety hazard. Soot build-up can cause clogs or damage to your chimney, and can even lead to a chimney fire. Poorly maintained chimneys produce poor fires and cost more to run. Moreover, they can release harmful CO2, carbon monoxide gas into your home, which is a poisonous gas that is colourless and odourless and extremely deadly.
