Roofer or chimney sweep
Chimney and chimney in Lelystad, who does what?
Chimney maintenance consists of two parts: the internal flue and the external chimney on your roof. The flue must vent the flue gases from your stove or fireplace, and soot buildup gradually narrows that passage. Chimney sweeping and cleaning that flue are the trade of a chimney sweep. The part above the roof is exposed to wind, rain, and frost. The exterior of the chimney is part of your roof, and you can come to us for that. Chimneys differ in construction. A masonry chimney consists of bricks and mortar, while a stainless steel or prefabricated chimney consists of ready-made sections. In addition to Lelystad, we work in Dronten, Swifterbant, Ketelhaven, Biddinghuizen, Urk, Nagele, and Emmeloord.
A chimney has an inside and an outside. The internal flue is swept by a chimney sweep, because that is where soot from the stove accumulates. The exterior, which is bricked, is part of your roof, and you can come to us for that. Anyone who maintains their chimney properly has the flue swept and the exterior inspected.

What you pay attention to yourself
Signs in your chimney in Lelystad
Loose bricks, cracks in the mortar, or dampness in the attic next to the chimney indicate that water is entering. If you wait too long, that moisture will seep further into the masonry and the damage will worsen. A poorly drawing stove or smoke in the house may indicate a blockage in the flue, often caused by bird nests in the spring. Call a chimney sweep.
What you want to know in advance
Questions about your chimney in Lelystad
Below you will find answers regarding what chimney sweeps do in the flue, preventing chimney fires, and the warranty on our work. We will inform you of what applies to your specific chimney after an inspection of your roof.
You can clean loose soot particles at the bottom yourself, but cleaning the flue itself requires brushes and knowledge of the flue. Residual soot poses a fire hazard because it can catch fire and cause a chimney fire. Therefore, leave the cleaning and sweeping to a chimney sweep, who will provide you with a sweeping certificate afterwards.
If you use a wood stove or fireplace, sweeping once a year is standard practice, as wood produces the most soot. A flue that is maintained and cleaned reduces the risk of fire. Less soot is produced by a gas heater, but bird nests can block the flue gas outlet. Therefore, check if a carbon monoxide detector is installed.
The part above the roof is also called a chimney pipe, and in Flanders, it is referred to as a schouw. The internal passage is called a flue or chimney channel, and a house with multiple appliances often has multiple flues. In the case of a modern stove, it is also referred to as the exhaust.
You receive a ten-year warranty on the work performed on your chimney, because we work with materials of which we know good quality. You will receive the warranty certificate after completion, both on paper and digitally.
If the stove is drawing poorly, there is a bird's nest in the flue, or you smell smoke in the house, a chimney sweep is the right professional. Stop burning if you notice smoke. Dampness next to the chimney or loose bricks on the roof are a job for a roofer. If you are in doubt, we will examine the situation on the outside during an inspection.

What do our say customers
Super satisfied! The roof inspection was completely free and we knew exactly where we stood right away, without any hassle afterwards.
Had new zinc cheeks and a neat bead moulding installed on the dormer. From the street side, it looks very sleek and handcrafted.
During a severe northwesterly storm, we experienced damp seeping in around the chimney in the attic. Nathaniel came to perform an inspection the very same day and showed with clear photos that the old leadwork was cracked. He immediately and expertly replaced the lead with durable, flexible roofing. Top-notch service and very pleasant to deal with!
