As regular readers of my weekly blog will know, over the years we have had a number of unexpected visitors to the back of our van whilst we are working. On this occasion it was the customers cheeky cat Billy who came to have a play around in the back of the van, he was particularly interested in swatting the long-handled sweeps brush where it was hanging from the racking! The customer told us an interesting story about how he had acquired Billy; it transpired that some time ago now Billy just arrived in the customer’s house and decided to stay. The customer was happy with this but decided to get Billy checked out at the vets first. At the vets the customer discovered that Billy had an identity chip and actually belonged to a couple who lived in a village about 7 miles away. The customer contacted these people and returned Billy to them and learn ’t that Billy had been missing for around 8 months. This said within a short space of time, Billy had left his owners again and made his way back to the customer’s home. This happened a few further times until the owners said that obviously Billy was much happier living with the customer than them and said that was where he should stay for good.

Dear Customer,
My name is Paddy McKeown, I am a retired police officer (Detective Sergeant – Metropolitan Police), turned chimney sweep. I have completed training with ‘The Guild of Master Chimney Sweeps’, and Rod Tech UK (Power Sweeping).
I have built up a wealth of practical knowledge and experience, and have invested in a range of sweeping equipment including CCTV equipment to examine and record the interior condition of flues/chimneys and so can diagnose and advise on all sorts of chimney problems and carry out minor repairs if necessary.
I sweep cleanly and efficiently all open fire places, as well as wood-burning stoves, Aga’s, Rayburn’s Alpha’s, Parkray’s, Baxi’s, inglenooks and biomass boilers.
Put simply, I offer an inclusive sweeping package that will guarantee your safety whilst you get the best out of your appliance or open fire.
