Two Wrexham Sweeps Serving Urban and Rural Areas

Wrexham's two chimney sweeps are spread across the local area, with one based in a more rural setting and the other in an urban neighbourhood. Together they cover Penycae, Holt, and the surrounding parishes of Abenbury, as well as the built-up areas of Rhosllannerchrugog and Pentre Maelor. This split means most Wrexham postcodes have a sweep within reasonable reach.

One of the two businesses opens on Saturdays, which can be helpful if you work weekdays. Both are independently run and based locally, not part of a national chain, so you're working directly with people who know the area.

Sweeping, Inspections and Repairs in Wrexham

Most chimney sweeps in Wrexham offer the core services: sweeping open fires, wood burners, multi-fuel stoves, range cookers and Aga flues. They can inspect your chimney using CCTV cameras to spot blockages, tar buildup, or structural damage before you light a fire. Many also fit safety equipment like bird guards and cowls, remove bird nests (outside the breeding season), and carry out smoke and draw tests to check your chimney's performance.

Repairs: From Pots to Full Liners

If your sweep spots a problem, most can handle repairs on the same visit or arrange a follow-up. Chimney pot replacement typically costs £140 to £370. Repointing to seal gaps in the mortar runs £280 to £930 depending on the extent of work. For chimneys with heavy tar deposits, a power sweep (also called rotary sweep) at £85 to £140 can shift stubborn buildup. If your flue is damaged or missing, a flexible flue liner supply and fit runs £835 to £2,045.

Best Time to Book Chimney Cleaning in Wrexham

Book your Wrexham sweep between May and August to avoid the autumn rush and ensure you're ready before the heating season starts in September. If you haven't swept in over a year, or you're lighting a fire for the first time, book sooner rather than later.

How often should I have my chimney swept?

If you use an open fire, sweep it at least once a year; twice yearly if you burn regularly. Wood burners and multi-fuel stoves need sweeping once a year or more often if you notice slow burning. If you have a range cooker or Aga, sweep it every 18 months. Regular sweeping prevents blockages and reduces fire risk.

What is a CCTV chimney inspection?

A CCTV inspection sends a camera up your flue to show any blockages, cracks, missing mortar, or bird nests. It costs £85 to £140 and is especially useful if you're buying a property, haven't swept in years, or suspect damage. The video helps your sweep spot problems that a standard sweep alone might miss.

What does a smoke test do?

A smoke or draw test checks whether your chimney pulls air up and out correctly. The sweep introduces harmless smoke and watches where it goes. If smoke enters the room, your flue may be blocked, damaged, or undersized. A test costs £35 to £65 and helps confirm your chimney is safe to use.

Can a chimney sweep remove a bird nest?

Yes, but only outside the breeding season. From March to August, nests are protected and must be left alone. Outside this period, bird nest removal costs £75 to £150. After removal, fitting a bird guard or cowl (£65 to £140) prevents nests returning.

What does a flexible flue liner do?

A flexible flue liner is a metal tube fitted inside a damaged or old chimney to create a safe, sealed passage for gases and smoke. It's often installed if your chimney has cracks, missing mortar, or is undersized for a new appliance. Supply and fitting runs £835 to £2,045 depending on chimney height and complexity.

Should I book my sweep before winter?

Yes. Most sweeps are busiest from September to December, so booking in late spring or summer (May to August) gets you a faster appointment and ensures your chimney is clear before you rely on your fire or stove. If you haven't swept in over a year, book even sooner.
