Chimney Sweep Cheshunt
HETAS certified, female-led chimney sweeps for Cheshunt, Hoddesdon, Broxbourne and Waltham Cross. Log burners and open fires swept with a smoke test and a certificate, from £95.
Your Cheshunt chimney sweep
A lot of Cheshunt and Waltham Cross is 1930s semis and post-war houses, built when every home had a coal fire. Many of those chimney breasts are still there, some with the original fireplace opened back up for a log burner, others boarded over for years. Around Turners Hill and Crossbrook Street there are older Victorian houses, and Hoddesdon's High Street conservation area has some proper Georgian buildings.
Whatever the age of the house, a sweep with us follows the same pattern: dust sheets, vacuum on, flue swept, appliance checked, smoke test, certificate. If something isn't right, such as a broken pot, a gap in the stove seal or signs of an old nest, we'll show you on the day.

What we often find in Cheshunt chimneys
The same few issues turn up in Broxbourne borough again and again.
1930s fireplaces brought back
People love opening up a boarded 1930s fireplace. After years shut off, those flues often have soot falls, fallen render or debris at the bottom. Sweep it and camera-check it before you light anything.
Stoves on old clay liners
Cheshunt semis usually have clay liners from when they were built. Joints can crack over time, and a stove puts more heat through than a coal fire ever did. We check what we can see and tell you if a camera survey is worth it.
Nesting near the Lea Valley
With the Lea Valley on the doorstep there are plenty of birds, and jackdaws in particular love an open pot. We clear old nests outside the breeding season and can fit a guard to stop them coming back.

Cheshunt chimney sweep FAQs

Which areas near Cheshunt do you cover?
We cover all of Cheshunt, including Goffs Oak, Flamstead End, Turnford and Rosedale, as well as Waltham Cross, Wormley, Broxbourne, Hoddesdon and Cuffley. EN7, EN8, EN10 and EN11 postcodes are all fine.
How much does it cost to sweep a chimney in Cheshunt?
From £95 for a standard sweep including a visual check, smoke test, clean-up and certificate. A CCTV inspection adds £75, or you can have both for £170. We confirm the price before starting.
I've opened up an old fireplace. Is it safe to use?
Don't light it until it's been swept and checked. Flues that have been closed for years can be blocked or damaged. We recommend a sweep plus a CCTV inspection so you know what's inside.
Can you stop birds nesting in my chimney?
Yes. We remove old nests outside the nesting season and fit a bird guard or cowl to suit your pot, so the problem doesn't come back next spring.
Does my stove need servicing as well as sweeping?
It's a good idea every year or two. Worn rope seals and cracked glass let in extra air and make the stove harder to control. Our stove servicing page explains what we check.
