Premium Sweep & Stove Service from £159 · Specialist sweep & service from £179
More than a chimney sweep

Give your stove the complete service it deserves.

Your chimney is swept, your stove is stripped down and its working components are cleaned, treated and checked. A thorough maintenance service designed to improve safety, appearance and performance.

Standard service£159For a standard single-sided stove with a lined chimney. A complete sweep and service for specialist appliances or unlined chimneys starts from £179.
Sweep & stove service

Clean beyond what you can see.

A standard chimney sweep removes deposits from the flue. That is essential, but it does not automatically mean the stove itself has been properly maintained.

The Embers Premium Sweep & Stove Service combines both jobs in one detailed appointment. The appliance is carefully stripped down, cleaned internally, checked and reassembled before the exterior and hearth are left presentable.

The £159 price applies to a standard single-sided stove connected to a lined chimney. A complete sweep and service for double-sided stoves, boat stoves, wet-back appliances, cookers and appliances connected to unlined chimneys starts from £179. If you are unsure, send a photograph on WhatsApp and we will confirm the price.

What’s included

One appointment. The complete job.

This is deliberately more thorough than a quick sweep. Every stage is carried out carefully and explained honestly.

01

Full chimney sweep

The flue is professionally swept using suitable equipment, with careful preparation to contain soot and dust.

02

Complete strip-down

Removable internal components are taken out to expose the areas where soot and deposits collect.

03

Deep internal clean

The firebox, airways and accessible internal areas are thoroughly cleaned rather than simply vacuumed at the front.

04

Component care

Suitable moving parts are lubricated, fixings tightened and serviceable seals attended to where required.

05

Refurbishment

Grates and ash pans are refurbished where appropriate, with suitable internal components repainted as needed.

06

Safety & integrity check

The stove is reassembled and checked for visible damage, deterioration and issues that may affect safe operation.

Comparison between a swept stove and a fully serviced stove
The important difference

Sweeping clears the flue. Servicing cares for the stove.

Your stove works in a harsh environment of heat, soot and corrosive deposits. Internal components, seals, airways and fixings need attention if the appliance is to keep operating as intended.

Cleaner combustion path

Deposits are removed from accessible stove airways and internal surfaces.

Potential problems identified

Damage and wear are easier to spot when the appliance is stripped and cleaned.

Better long-term care

Routine attention can help prevent small maintenance issues becoming expensive repairs.

The appointment

Careful from arrival to completion.

Most services take between one and two hours. Exact time depends on the stove design, access and its condition.

01

Prepare

The work area is protected and sweeping equipment is set up carefully.

02

Sweep

The chimney is swept and deposits are safely contained and removed.

03

Service

The stove is stripped, deep cleaned and its components attended to.

04

Check

The stove is reassembled, checked and any findings are explained to you.

Common questions

Before you book.

How long does the service take?

Usually between 60 and 120 minutes, depending on the appliance, access and how much maintenance it needs. Specialist appliances may require longer.

What starts from £179?

The £179 starting price is for a complete sweep and service on double-sided stoves, boat stoves, wet-back appliances, cookers and appliances connected to an unlined chimney. A sweep without the full service is £99.

What if I am unsure which price applies?

Send a clear photograph of the appliance on WhatsApp. We will identify the service type and confirm the price before arranging your appointment.

Are replacement parts included?

No. The service price covers the sweep, servicing labour and routine servicing materials. Any replacement parts will be discussed separately.

Do I need a full service every year?

The right frequency depends on use, fuel and the appliance. Many customers combine it with their annual sweep, particularly where the stove is used regularly.

Will there be any mess?

The area is carefully prepared and professional equipment is used to contain soot and dust. Your hearth is cleaned before completion.
