Power Sweeping, Camera Inspections & Safety Reports
Chimney sweeping and CCTV flue surveys Dundee is our specialist maintenance and diagnostics service for wood and multi-fuel systems. We carry out modern power sweeping to remove soot, creosote and debris, then—where needed—deploy high-resolution CCTV to assess liners, clay flues and twin-wall sections. The result is a cleaner, safer flue and clear recommendations before installation, after a chimney fire, or as part of an annual maintenance plan.
Our engineers coordinate findings with your appliance specification, confirming draw performance, terminal condition and compliance. If remedial work is required, we’ll outline options—from flexible flue liners to twin-wall chimney systems—so you can move forward confidently.
GET IN TOUCH
Clear paths. Clear conscience.
Our chimney sweeping and CCTV flue surveys Dundee service keeps every woodburning stove Dundee safe, efficient and compliant. We combine traditional brush techniques with camera inspection technology to diagnose and prevent issues before they become costly.
100%
100 % inspection coverage on every sweep. From register plate to terminal, our technicians record, brush, and vacuum all accessible sections of your flue or liner.
Professional chimney sweeping
Annual sweeping removes soot, tar and blockages, reducing chimney fire risk and keeping emissions low. Every sweep includes visual checks and CO alarm verification.
Frequency & certification
Domestic stoves: at least once per year; high-use or commercial: twice yearly. We issue a HETAS or APICS sweep certificate recognised by insurers.
Linked services
Combine sweeping with direct-air kit inspection or hearth checks for full safety coverage.
4K
4K CCTV flue surveys pinpoint hidden defects and obstructions invisible to basic sweeping, ideal for pre-installation checks and insurance diagnostics.
CCTV survey technology
We use high-definition, articulating cameras to record internal flue conditions. You receive video evidence and a digital report with recommendations.
Common findings
Misaligned liners, failed joints, cracked masonry and tar glaze are the main culprits behind poor draft or smoke ingress. Early detection saves costly rebuilds.
When to request a survey
• After chimney fire or heavy tar build-up
• Before fitting a new stove or liner
• When smoke escapes, smells, or poor draft occurs

Chimney sweeping and CCTV flue surveys Dundee
What’s included. Our chimney sweeping and CCTV flue surveys Dundee service begins with a tidy, sheeted-up workspace and HEPA extraction. We use rotary power-sweeping heads sized to your flue to dislodge soot and Stage-1/Stage-2 creosote where safe, check terminals and pots, and confirm flue integrity at connections. If we identify concerns—poor draw, tar glaze, blockage risk or suspected liner damage—we perform a CCTV survey to capture images and measurements. You’ll receive a concise report with remedial options and, where relevant, pricing for relining, pot/cowl upgrades or twin-wall routes.
Better burning, less mess. Clean flues help appliances achieve their designed efficiency and reduce the chance of smoke spillage. For tips on faster, cleaner lighting, explore the Hot Box ® Firestarter blog—from first ignition to ongoing stove care. Good practice at the hearth translates into less soot, fewer sweep visits and a happier chimney.
