Chimney Sweep in Folkestone
Sooty & Sweeps has been sweeping chimneys for over 40 years, and our family-run team covers Folkestone from our Kent base in Ramsgate. We look after homes, businesses and period and heritage properties across the town, whether the fire is an open fire, a wood-burning stove or another type of appliance.
Every sweep is HETAS approved, accredited with APICS and fully insured. You get a final quote before we start, and a HETAS certificate once the sweep is done.
Keeping a Folkestone chimney safe
Soot, nests and cracks in a flue can cause blockages, smoke leaks and carbon monoxide risk. Our sweep includes an inspection of the stack, pot and cowl, a smoke evacuation test and a check of your CO alarm. We can also fit bird guards, cowls and caps to help keep problems from returning, and arrange flue lining or stove installation if you need more than a sweep.
We recommend sweeping at least once a year, ideally before winter. If you burn wood, HETAS advises sweeping twice a year.
We also cover nearby Deal and Canterbury.
