Chimney Sweeping in Killybegs - FAQ
How often does a chimney need sweeping?
Once a year for regular use, twice if you burn wood heavily or use unseasoned timber. Smokeless fuel is cleaner but still needs an annual sweep.
Does my insurance really require it?
Most Irish policies expect an annual sweep for solid fuel, and a claim after a chimney fire is where it gets tested. Keep the certificate — it is the document that proves it was done.
Will it make a mess?
It should not. The fireplace is sheeted and the sweep works with a vacuum running. If someone arrives without sheets and a vacuum, that is a bad sign.
