Chimney Sweep Services
York

York, the historic walled city, is the traditional county capital of Yorkshire with the most complete medieval streets in Europe (The Shambles), over 360 pubs and the largest Gothic cathedral in northern Europe – in fact, York Minster also has more stained glass windows than anywhere else in England.

Tourists flock to see the city’s Roman heritage and Jorvik Viking Museum, the county’s longest town walls and the largest railway museum in the world – which houses the only Japanese bullet train outside of Japan.

Yet York has an industrious side too, its economy was founded on railway manufacturing and chocolate making – Yorkie bar and Terry’s Chocolate Oranges were made here. It’s even a National Science City, with a science park near the redbrick University of York.

So you’ll never be short of skilled local tradesmen.

From plumbers in Heworth and tilers in The Rise to wedding car hire in Woodthorpe, you’ll find the local tradesmen you need in our York directory.

If you're lucky enough to own a real fireplace, you need to look after your chimney correctly. If your fireplace, chimney and vents aren't checked or cleaned annually by qualified professionals, the risk of a devastating house fire becomes very real.

Your local chimney sweep will identify and replace cracked, broken or missing flute tiles or bricks, to minimise the risk of the worst happening. With their electric and brush sweeps, they'll get to work clearing blockages like birds' nests, cleaning your wood burning stove and replacing the stove lining so that you and your home can breathe easy. Having your flue swept should rid your chimney breast of toxic smoke, soot and gasses.

For a chimney as clean as a whistle, call in your local chimney sweeps to do the dirty work. Chimney sweeping takes as little as 45 minutes on average, and often comes at a reasonable chimney sweep cost.
