Sweeping in Ferndown.
Ferndown is a largely twentieth-century town, grown out of heathland into a spread of comfortable suburban housing with a good deal of it built since the war.
That makes for the most straightforward flues in Dorset — purpose-built, of known age, without the archaeology that comes with period property. The work here is overwhelmingly stoves: appliances installed into modern fireplaces or into breasts built for gas fires, in the last two or three decades.
The thing worth watching in this housing is the quality of the original installation. A stove connected to an unlined flue that was designed for a gas appliance is oversized for the job, and it will tar rather than soot. That is a common finding in this sort of stock, and it is entirely fixable once somebody has looked.

The dominant local job, and an oversized unlined flue wants sweeping twice a year until it is put right.
05
CCTV flue inspection
Establishing whether a retrofit was lined properly is a five-minute question with a camera and guesswork without one.
We do all six across Ferndown — this is simply what the local building stock tends to throw up. See everything we take on.
