This isn’t just any vacuum — it’s one of the very few designed specifically for soot. With two advanced filters (a fine cellulose filter + a HEPA H13 filter), it traps even the smallest soot particles.

Why does that matter?
👉 Because soot is carcinogenic – and definitely not something you want to be breathing in.

At Downes Chimney Cleaning, we invest in the best equipment to keep your home safe, clean, and healthy. 💨🏡

Big auld nest inside this 6 meter Stanley oil range chimney. Starlings will get in even when the chimney flue cap has about a 2cm gap. Flue draught is now restored which can be heard by a great suction up the chimney, before there was no sound in the chimney because it was properly blocked.

Our creosote removal service is a 14 day process. We supply you with a chimical that you burn in the fire, the chimney is cleaned twice, once on day 7 and finally on day 14.

This service restores the chimney back to safe working order. Creosote is highly flammable and also blocks chimneys.

Below is a recent job, we removed approx 40kg of stage 3 creosote from this 8 meter high chimney.

Selling your house?

If you're one of those awesome people that has there chimney cleaned before moving out, please ask for a (dated) receipt so the new owner has proof that the chimney was cleaned.

We have had a couple of people book an appointment after they've bought a new house and they're unsure if the chimney is clean which it is.
