Professional Chimney Services Across Yeovil & South Somerset

Chimney Sweeping & Maintenance

Regular chimney sweeping is essential for safe, efficient fires and wood burners. We recommend sweeping at least once a year for occasional users, twice yearly for regular users, and quarterly if you burn wood as your primary heating source throughout Yeovil and surrounding areas.

Our professional chimney sweeping service removes dangerous soot, creosote, and tar deposits that cause chimney fires and prevent toxic gases from escaping safely. We use modern brushing techniques and equipment to thoroughly clean your chimney with minimal mess, and issue an official certificate of sweeping for every job—required by most buildings insurance policies.

Chimney sweeping protects your family from carbon monoxide poisoning, prevents chimney fires, improves stove efficiency, and maintains your insurance validity. Tom Sweep covers wood burners, multi-fuel stoves, open fires, Agas, and oil-fired appliances across South Somerset and West Dorset.

HETAS Stove Installation & Chimney Work

As HETAS and OFTEC registered installers, Tom Sweep provides professional stove installation throughout Yeovil, Sherborne, Crewkerne, and surrounding areas. Our installations meet current Building Regulations with full certification, ensuring your new wood burner or multi-fuel stove is safe, efficient, and legal.

Our stove installation services include wood burner and multi-fuel stove fitting, flexible flue liner installation, twin-wall flue systems (if you don’t have a chimney), fireplace redesign including building work and rendering, hearth construction and installation, plus chimney pointing and structural repairs.

Every installation is completed to HETAS standards with proper certification, building control notification, and carbon monoxide alarm fitting (now a legal requirement). We handle the entire process from initial survey through to final sign-off.

Wood Burner Servicing & Repairs

Your fireplace is a main focal point in your home, and regular servicing keeps it looking and performing at its best. Tom Sweep provides comprehensive stove servicing and maintenance across Yeovil and South Somerset, including rope seal replacement, firebrick renewal, glass cleaning and replacement, baffle plate servicing, door hinge repairs, and complete stove refurbishment.

Regular servicing extends your stove’s lifespan, maintains efficiency, prevents costly repairs, and ensures safe operation. We service all wood burner and multi-fuel stove brands throughout Somerset and Dorset.

Bird Nest Removal & Prevention

Bird and squirrel nests are common chimney problems across South Somerset. Signs include hearing birds chirping, sticks falling into your fireplace, or smoke entering the room when you light fires. Nests block chimneys dangerously, preventing smoke and carbon monoxide from escaping.

Tom Sweep removes nests safely (outside breeding season to comply with wildlife protection laws) and can fit bird guards or cowls to prevent future nesting. Our nest removal service includes CCTV inspection to confirm complete clearance before issuing your sweep certificate.

Chimney CCTV Inspection

When chimney problems need accurate diagnosis, our CCTV inspection service provides clear visual evidence of blockages, damage, or structural issues. Using high-quality camera equipment, we identify and locate problems without guesswork—essential for diagnosing persistent smoking problems, checking liner condition, or assessing damage before repairs.

CCTV inspections are particularly valuable for older properties in Yeovil, Sherborne, and throughout Somerset where chimney condition is uncertain. We provide photographic reports when required.
