Average Chimney Sweep Prices
Expect to pay £65 to £95 for a routine open fire sweep in Colchester. Stove and wood burner sweeps sit slightly higher at £70 to £100, since the sweep has to remove and clean the baffle and work through a liner.
Prices here run above the UK average, which mostly reflects higher travel, parking and running costs in the area.
Extra work costs more: a CCTV inspection runs £95 to £160 and clearing a bird nest is £85 to £170. Many sweeps offer a discount if you book two flues on the same visit, so it is worth asking.
These are guide prices to help you budget, not quotes. Always confirm the price with the sweep before they arrive.
