Sweeping chimneys in Salford
Salford covers more ground and more kinds of housing than almost anywhere else we work, and the chimneys vary accordingly.
The terraced streets through Ordsall, Weaste and Pendleton were built for coal — narrow flues, party-wall stacks, and a great many chimneys that were swept as routine for generations and then left alone for decades once gas central heating arrived. Bringing one of those back into service is the job we get called to most often here.
Around Broughton and Higher Broughton the picture changes entirely. Substantial Victorian villas with tall stacks carrying four or five flues, most of them unlined, and usually at least one fireplace in a room nobody lights. Those unused flues still need checking — they are where nests and debris sit unnoticed.
What we find in Salford homes
What comes up most often on jobs round here.
- Long-dormant coal flues brought back into use — sweep and draw test before first lighting, not after the room fills with smoke
- Narrow terrace flues on party-wall stacks — less forgiving than a wide Victorian throat, and a problem on one side can affect the house next door
- Several unlined flues to one stack in the Broughton villas — the unused ones still need looking at
- Landlord and tenancy sweeps — if you are letting a property with a solid fuel appliance you will want a dated certificate on file
- Stoves fitted into flues sized for an open fire — too wide for the appliance, so they run cool and soot up faster than expected
No mess, and a certificate your insurer accepts
Sheets go down before we start and a high-powered HEPA filtered industrial vacuum runs throughout the job. We sweep traditionally or by power sweeping depending on what your flue actually needs.
Every job includes a free smoke draw test and a NACS Certificate of Chimney Sweeping — which matters, because most insurers will no longer pay out on chimney fire damage without one.
