Now’s the time to book your chimney sweep!

 

We’re living through a strange time in the middle of Winter right now (Jan/Feb). The season of Spring is officially two months away (it starts on March 20) and folk tend to be split between thinking it won’t be long until the sunny weather arrives and trying to keep warm as the weather doesn’t seem to be getting any better.

The reality, of course, is that Spring is still a long time away and even when it does arrive, that doesn’t mean we can all grab our surfboards and bottles of beer and head to the nearest beach.

It’s a fact that the cold weather is going to be around for a long time yet so do keep your indoor fires burning! But make sure they are burning efficiently and safely (see tips on BurnRight) to save money and save the environment.  

Meanwhile here in this little corner of Kent, in the Tunbridge Wells to Southborough to Maidstone area, to be exact, residents are busy making hay while the Sun does NOT shine. Meaning – we’re all being industrious and working hard.

For James the Sweep that means preventing residents from suffering serious injury, even death, as a result of carbon monoxide poisoning caused by unswept chimneys.

You may spot James’ van (aka ‘Sooty’) driving around the region, checking and cleaning the chimneys for residents’ homes and local businesses such as pubs and restaurants.

If so, do give James a wave! And don’t forget that it’s not too late to book an appointment with James. It costs only £60 for a standard sweep for woodburning stoves and open fires.

That hard-to-beat price includes not only the full sweep after checking the condition of the chimney flue, but a professional smoke test to ensure the chimney and indoor fire is working properly. It ALSO includes a certificated officially approved by the Guild of Master Chimney Sweeps (James is a member) which can often be used for the purposes of household insurance.

So… whether it’s a cold Winter or a cold Spring… rest assured that James the Sweep is available to keep your chimney in good condition wherever you live in Kent or East Sussex. All you have to do is phone 07587 134589 to book an appointment.

James the Sweep covers the areas of Paddock Wood, Sevenoaks, Tunbridge Wells, Hadlow, Pembury, Tonbridge, Southborough, Tonbridge, Crowborough, Hildenborough and Maidstone.
