  1. Time To Prepare Your Chimney For Chimney Sweeping In Bromley Not everyone with a chimney installed in their house is aware of the fact that the home heating appliance should be cleaned by professionals at least once every year. The fireplace will become safer and more efficient if it is clean. But before you get in touch with experienced chimney sweeps to remove the soot and creosote sticking to the flue, prepare the chimney for the task by following the few tips stated in the slides that follow. Check The Presence Of Animals ●If you have not used the chimney in the last few months, ask your chimney sweep in London to start cleaning it after ensuring there are no critters. ●It is common for raccoons, squirrels and birds to build their nest in the chimney pipe during the cooler months.

  2. Measure The Flue ●Properly-sized tools should be used to measure the sides of the chimney before you start cleaning it. ●The easiest way to measure the chimney flue is by climbing up the ladder and measuring it from the top. Use Proper Cleaning Supplies ●Though you can visit the local hardware store and choose from various chimney cleaning products, only an experienced chimney sweep in Bromley knows the right supplies. ●They take the chimney’s measurements first so that they can bring a chimney brush (plastic or wire) of the right size.

  3. Use Appropriate Clothing ●Since your dress can get messy with soot while you are cleaning the chimney, it is always advisable to wear old clothes. ●You can use a bandanna to cover your head, protect your hands by wearing gloves and prevent soot from entering your eyes and mouth by wearing goggles. Prepare The House ●A tarp or drop cloth can be used to drape the area surrounding the fireplace and extend it into your living room. ●Furniture should be covered using light fabric like tarps and sheets and expensive rugs should be rolled and shifted to a safer place. Time to follow the tips stated in the previous slides and preparing your chimney for a sweep will become easier.
