🛑 STOP: This is why we don't just 'sweep' chimneys.
We recently attended a callout to a homeowner that noticed something worrying: SMOKE WAS LEAKING into an upstairs bedroom when the fire was lit.
They knew something was wrong but the danger was hidden from view.
📹THE INVESTIGATION. We didn't just guess, we deployed our high tech Wöhler inspection camera to give us a view inside the flue.
⚠️THE DISCOVERY.
1. Missing liner: Large sections of flue had failed
2. Exposed structural timber: A massive wooden floor beam was sitting directly in the chimney.
Every time the stove was lit raw heat and sparks were hitting dry structural wood, this wasn't just a smoke leak - this was a disaster waiting to happen.
✅️ The Dwyers difference
We don't just clear soot, we ensure that your home is safe. Because we used our inspection camera we were able to identify the exact location of the fault and were able to provide a clear plan to protect the property.
Is your chimney safe? If you live in an older house or smell smoke upstairs don't ignore it.
