Chimney fire
Deposits in the flue can catch fire when the stove is burning hard.
An insurer who refuses
Without a sweeping certificate, your insurer can dispute a claim.
A stove that smokes
A blocked flue draws badly: the fire smokes and burns more fuel.

Your questions for your Ruffec chimney sweep
Yes. The departmental health regulations require flues to be swept regularly. Your insurance policy may require it too.
It proves the flue has been maintained. After a heating-related claim, your insurer will ask for it.
No. The hearth is sheeted, the floor protected and the area vacuumed before I leave.
Usually about an hour. It depends on the appliance and the state of the flue.
Yes. I sweep the flue and clean the appliance. I also tell you what falls under the manufacturer’s servicing.
Ideally before the heating season. Requests pour in during the autumn: booking early gives you more choice of times.
