Looking for a chimney sweep in East Co. Limbo

mud

Hi all,

As the title says I'm looking for someone to sweep my chimney asap as this cold snap is only going to get worse :eek:

I'm paranoid about lighting the fire as the chimney hasn't been cleaned in ages and I saw a raging chimney fire yesterday that convinced me not to start lighting the fire til it's all ship-shape.

The general area is Doon Co. Limerick.

Any tips or info will be much appreciated guys

Ring Gerry at 'Cleansweep', I'll give you his number by private message.

thanks, got that number and will ring him today, surprisingly hard to find one!
Thanks again, you is a legend!

Thanks for the number munsterdevil but am still on the search!

Unfortunately Gerry wanted me to find him more business before he'd come out to me.

As in to find 5 or 6 other houses that wanted doing.

I can't do that so the search goes on for a sweep who is happy to clean chimneys and not expect other people to find him business.

Anyone with any other leads on sweeps would be great!

Cheers mud.

I am new to boards and just after finding this post...

In my defense...

I remember your call quite vividly..!!! I dont have too many regulars in the Doon area.

In order to make the travelling time/fuel expenses pay and ease the cost to yourself!! I asked if you could help me to help you? By way of asking friends and neighbours if they wanted to have their chimneys cleaned on the same day!!! Then I would quite happily have charged more favourable prices without the premium that I have to add on for my travelling costs and time (1hr round trip.) That amount of time easily covers 2 to 3 local calls.

Especially in my busy season I simply cannot easily afford to commit to to such efforts at the drop of a hat.. Maybe in the quiet season I may canvass the area.

My apologies for the misunderstanding and the crossed wires that have arisen..

I am totally committed to offering each and every customer the best possible service and quality they richly deserve.
