The Dirty Job Company vs Erne: Which Enniskillen Sweep for You

The two sweeps operating in Enniskillen offer different strengths. The dirty job company chimney sweep has built up 21 customer reviews and maintains a website where you can check availability and request a booking. Erne Chimney Sweep, meanwhile, opens on Saturdays, which suits homeowners who work weekdays and need weekend access.

Between them, these sweeps cover the postcodes BT94 and BT74 across Enniskillen. If you're further afield in Fermanagh and Omagh county, you'll find additional sweeps in nearby Omagh (18 miles away) and Castlederg (23 miles), though most local customers will find a sweep within the town itself.

  • Ask whether your chosen sweep offers CCTV inspection to identify blockages or damage before sweeping
  • Request a sweeping certificate on completion; your insurance and warranty may require it
  • If your chimney draws poorly or smokes into the room, enquire about a smoke test to diagnose the cause

Preparing Your Chimney for Inspection and Sweep

Before the sweep arrives, clear the hearth and any furniture from in front of the fireplace or stove. If you've noticed birds nesting in your chimney, alert the sweep in advance, as protected bird species may be present during breeding season and removal will need to wait until they've fledged. Most sweeps carry dust sheets and work carefully to minimise mess, but moving ornaments and loose items away beforehand always helps.

  • Close off adjoining rooms where possible to contain dust and soot
  • Have any recent boiler or stove servicing records to hand so the sweep understands your heating setup
  • If you've experienced poor draw or fumes, mention this when you book so the sweep can plan for a draw or smoke test

Booking Your Enniskillen Sweep Before the Heating Rush

Frequently Asked Questions About Chimney Sweeps in Enniskillen

How often should I have my chimney swept?

Open fires and wood burners should be swept at least once a year, typically before the heating season starts. If you burn a lot of wood or notice heavy tarring, ask your sweep whether twice-yearly sweeping would suit your chimney. Gas fires and range cookers need less frequent sweeping but still benefit from an annual check.

What does a CCTV chimney inspection show?

A CCTV inspection lets the sweep see inside your flue with a camera, identifying blockages, cracks, tar buildup, loose mortar, or nesting material without needing to dismantle anything. It costs £80 to £135 in Enniskillen and is especially useful if your chimney draws poorly or you're unsure of its condition.

Do I need a sweeping certificate?

Yes. Your buildings insurer and boiler warranty typically require a sweeping certificate as proof of maintenance. Your sweep will issue one on completion of the job.

What's the difference between a standard sweep and a power sweep?

A standard manual sweep cleans most chimneys well. A power or rotary sweep uses an electric rod and brush to dislodge heavy tar and creosote buildup, especially useful if your chimney has tarred significantly. Power sweeps cost £80 to £135.

Can a sweep remove a bird's nest?

Bird nests are protected during breeding season. If birds are nesting, removal must wait until they've fledged. Outside breeding season, removal typically costs £70 to £145. Fitting a bird guard or cowl (£65 to £135) prevents future nesting.

Why is my chimney drawing poorly?

Poor draw can result from blockages, a blocked or damaged flue, low chimney height, or negative pressure in your home. A smoke or draw test (£35 to £65) helps diagnose the cause. Your sweep can advise whether cleaning, a new liner, or a chimney cowl will fix it.
