Wood Heater & Flue Cleaning in Sydney

Slow-combustion and wood heater flues swept clean of creosote and soot — by insured Sydney sweeps, with zero mess.

Chimney sweep cleaning a slow combustion wood heater flue in a Sydney home
What it involves

Log burner, pot belly or slow combustion — we clean them all

If you burn a wood heater or slow-combustion stove through a Sydney winter, creosote and soot build up inside the flue every time you light it. Left alone, that tarry residue narrows the flue, chokes airflow and becomes the leading cause of chimney fires.

We clean the full flue system — from the firebox and baffle up through the flue pipe to the cowl — using rotary brushes sized to your flue and continuous vacuum extraction. Drop sheets go down, the firebox is sealed, and nothing escapes into your living room.

Slow-combustion heaters

Enclosed fireboxes burn cooler and lay down creosote faster — annual cleaning is essential.

Free-standing wood stoves

Pot-belly and box stoves with steel flues clean up quickly and draw better afterwards.

Built-in heater inserts

Insert flues and flexi-liners are swept without disturbing your mantel or surround.

Questions, answered

How often should a wood heater flue be cleaned?
At least once a year for regular winter use, and mid-season if you burn daily or use unseasoned wood. We can advise based on what we find on your first clean.
Do you clean the baffle and flue pipe too?
Yes — a full clean covers the firebox, baffle, flue pipe and cowl, not just the visible parts.
Is it messy?
No. We seal the firebox and run continuous vacuum extraction with drop sheets down. Your room stays clean.
