Recent Work Around Brandon
We regularly sweep chimneys in Brandon and nearby villages including Lakenheath, Feltwell, Mundford, and Weeting. Common work includes routine annual sweeps and bird nest clearance in disused chimneys.
What we see in Brandon homes
Brandon is flint. The old town and the villages round it, Weeting, Santon Downham, Mundford, are flint cottages with big brick chimneys, many with an open fire that has been used hard for a century and a stove dropped in more recently. The estates built when the town grew in the sixties and seventies are the other half of our Brandon work: houses with no original chimney and a stove someone fitted later on a steel flue.
Lakenheath is on the same run, and with the base next door a lot of houses there are let, so tenants and landlords both book us.

Getting to you
From Great Barton it is about 25 minutes, up through Thetford or across from Elveden. Brandon and Thetford jobs go together for us, so a same-week date is usually there outside October to December.
What a sweep in Brandon costs
A standard sweep is from £75, insurance certificate included, and we confirm the price before we start. A fire that has not been lit in years is often more than a sweep, and if so we tell you what we found and what it costs before doing anything else.
Questions we get asked in Brandon
We have bought a flint cottage in Brandon and the open fire has not been lit in years. Can we just light it?
Please do not. A flue that has stood unused collects nests, debris and sometimes a cap somebody fitted and forgot. We sweep it, check it is clear to the top and drawing, and tell you whether it is safe to use as an open fire or would be better with a stove and liner. If it is fine, we say so.
We rent in Lakenheath and the landlord says the sweep is our responsibility. Can we book ourselves?
Yes. Tenants book us directly all the time. You get the certificate for your own records and we can send a copy to the landlord or agent if you want them to have it.
What does the certificate actually cover?
It records that the flue was swept on that date, what appliance it serves and what we observed. Insurers accept it as evidence the chimney was maintained. It is not a guarantee that the flue is structurally sound; if we see signs of a problem we write that down and tell you, and a camera inspection is the next step if you want to know for certain.
