About Me

Hi there, I’m Richard, and I’m not your typical chimney sweep. With 18 years of experience as an aircraft engineer, specializing in both military and civil aircraft, precision and attention to detail are second nature to me. For the past 7 years, I’ve also proudly served as a firefighter, battling blazes and ensuring the safety of my community.

This unique combination of backgrounds has instilled in me a deep understanding of the importance of safety. As your chimney sweep, I bring that same commitment to safety and meticulousness to every job I undertake. You can trust me to not only keep your chimney clean but also to ensure that your home is a safe and secure environment for you and your loved ones.

What my customers say

Rich came and swept our log burner/chimney this afternoon. 10/10 service. Was professional and kept the place clean. Very knowledgeable in what he was doing and answered any questions I had to ask. Highly recommend and will be booking again in the future.

Will be using him again. Highly recommend.

Highly recommend R.B Chimney sweeps, will use again! Very clean, courteous and friendly as well as offering advice on how best to use the wood burner.

Oli Egan

Excellent communication, managed to squeeze me in to clean my chimney. Arrived on time, bought in all his equipment from the van.

Took his shoes off every time!

Gave the chimney a cracking clean out too. Over half a bucket of soot removed.

Cleaned and tidied everything away. All relevant paperwork and certificates sorted.

Also gave me some advice re some fire safety – ie my electrical sockets and advised getting a carbon monoxide detector. Have booked in again for next year! Would definitely recommend – and will do so to friends. Thanks.

Amazing job. Super friendly and polite, the place was spotless afterwards and he identified a minor repair that was needed that he arranged to come back to fix at no extra cost. Fantastic communication throughout. Will definitely be booking again for next year!
