It’s going to be an emotional one tomorrow, as we walk 18miles to celebrate & remember the 18 years, of having my hero, my nephew in our lives. Taken from us way too early but so thankful for having such a strong, kind & caring fighter in our lives & showing the rest of us, that no matter what life throws at you, to always keep fighting & smile through every pain… ā¤ļø

Customer booked myself back in February to have a look at her open fire, no matter how often they got it swept it was still smoking back into the room!! Every 3 weeks or so they felt the need to put ā€œDrain rodsā€ up the chimney to help it draw properly but could never understand why there was very little soot being removed!! It was swept on Saturday past & again very little soot was removed… Low & behold today after a 3 stage professional sweep I removed enough soot to fill 1/3 of her domestic bin… šŸ™ˆ Problem solved, chimney fit to breath again & some better burning advice shared… šŸ”„ šŸ‘Œ

Just because you own a set of drain rods does not make you a chimney sweeper, I can dance & have good moves but I’m no stripper šŸ•ŗ šŸ’ƒ šŸ˜‚

A fire needs three things to burn properly:

1. Fuel (wood, coal, gas, etc.)
2. Oxygen (air)
3. Sufficient heat

If any of these are lacking, combustion becomes incomplete. Common causes include:

* Insufficient air supply due to closed vents or poor ventilation
* Wet or unseasoned wood
* Overloading the stove with fuel
* Low fire temperatures
* Blocked chimneys or flues
* Poor stove maintenance

Thankfully I got to this one in time, another handful of fires & this property would of had a serious chimney fire… šŸ”„

RANT ALERT 😔 so strap in & listen up!!

99% of my customer base are absolute legends, however the 1% of you that mess me about with some of the following…

āŒ Cancel or rearrange your appointment last minute not given me time to refill that slot!!
āŒ Wasting my time with me having to chase you for payment, when job is complete.
āŒ or give me an attitude over text that you wouldn’t do if I was standing in front of you.

I treat every single customer of mine with respect & will always go over & beyond for you, however what I won’t tolerate is time wasters!! As a professional tradesman running a successful business it’s no surprise that I have a large amount of bills to pay, a family & house to provide for so please treat me with the same respect that I treat you it’s that simple!! I understand sometimes rearranging appointments have to be done because it’s circumstances that’s out of your control & I will do my best to cooperate with you but I won’t cooperate with those people that take a week to send across payment or those people that haven’t the decency to let me know in good time they need to rearrange or cancel their appointment. Moving forward you will simply be added to the DNR (Do not return) list & will have to look elsewhere for someone that’s going to tolerate your lack of respect for a professional…

Moral of the story, be a DECENT personā€¦šŸ™Œ

Everything about this picture is wrong!! šŸ™ˆ

Smoke stained glass, creosote building up inside the door, the quality of the soot that was removed from the chimney & the main cause of it all šŸ¤” the person operating it!!

All this could of been avoided by a small tweak… thankfully after a lengthy discussion with the customer & a few demonstrations she has more confidence in operating her stove now šŸ™Œ

I’m incredibly passionate about chimney sweeping and take pride in helping keep homes safe, warm, and running efficiently…. But today, oh boy am I glad to be home!! From Antrim, Lisburn, Portadown & Lurgan it was my pleasure to welcome even more new customers to the forever growing Sweep Clearly customer base, however every stove I came across today looked like they hadn’t been swept in years with the amount of soot I was removing from them & I honestly couldn’t believe that they where swept within the past 12months until I seen the paperwork from the previous sweep!! šŸ™ˆ Below is just one example of a chimney that was swept last year in Portadown, the customer has had serious issues with smoke burping back into the room. 2 black bags & a 38litre hoover bag full of soot I removed from it today!! 😔

ā€œThere’s a reason I have a lengthy waiting list & booked months ahead - reputation can’t be bought, it has to be earned.ā€ šŸ‘Œ šŸ™Œ

Hardest thing about my expertise in this field is trying to get a customer to understand that their burning habits is completely wrong… Most of the time it’s poor knowledge on the understanding of the workings of a stove, other times they generally don’t care until the damage is done to their appliance & they have to replace it with a costly bill or they are ringing the fire brigade šŸ”„

Below is a few key areas to consider…

Common signs:

* Sticky, shiny, or hardened coating on chimney walls
* Smoky smell
* Poor draft or smoke backing up
* Black flakes falling into the fireplace or stove

Common causes:

* Burning wet/unseasoned wood
* Low-temperature fires
* Poor airflow
* Infrequent chimney cleaning

Always having to clean your stove glass? Unable to see the fire burning with smoke stained glass? You my friend are using your stove COMPLETELY WRONG!! šŸ™ˆ

Stay safe… šŸ”„ šŸ™Œ

The importance of carrying this out is crucial šŸ‘Œ

Before any flue or stove is swept & serviced I always carry out a visual mirror inspection because I like to know exactly what I’m dealing with…

- Is there a liner?
- What type of soot is being built up?
- Any signs of creosote or corrosion?
- What type of rods will I use?
- What type of head will sweep the best?

These are just a few examples of what I like to know before I begin on your appliance. I will never do what most sweeps do & force an oversized brush or whip within your chimney risking of busting your flexi liner!! Most of the work I’m seeing with coming behind a lot of sweeps currently is either busted/damaged liners, chimneys half swept because they don’t assess the chimney & just force an undersized/oversized whip up there & hoping for the best with the standard of clean.

Whip heads use flexible spinning strands to break up soot and glazed creosote deposits, but they can:

- catch on damaged liner joints,
- tear weakened or corroded liners,
- pull apart poorly secured connections,
- or damage lightweight flexible liners if excessive speed or pressure is used.

Raising the standard of the sweeping industry day by day… šŸ™Œ šŸ”„

First time since starting this business up almost 8 years ago that I remembered to book off a May Day bank holiday (Woohoo) who said Men can’t be organised? šŸ¤”šŸ˜œ

As lovely as it is with having a 4month waiting time & longer come September, the downside is I have worked every bank holiday the past 8 years almost, think it’s fair to say I earned this long weekend off…

Another order of stock replenished & added to the collection, van washed & ready for the road again on Tuesday morning!! Last few remaining appointments for September… ā€œDon’t settle for less, book the bestā€ šŸ‘Œ

Have a blessed weekend everyone… šŸ™
