    Hi all!

    It's getting to that time of year again, time to light fires in the evening!

    So, we havent lit a fire since about early April, and we were thinking, will the chimney need cleaning?

    If so, does anyone know a chimney cleaner in letterkenny? And also, roughly how much it would cost?

    Thanks!!

    we clean ours from the bottom up,put the first brush up tape a piece of plastic or heavey cloth over the grate so just the brush handle is showing and then keep adding the brush extentions as you brush up,the plasticor cloth keeps the dust from covering the room. brush up slowly. trust me its easy

    The chimney sweep <SNIP>. about e45. We use him about every 8 months as our fire is used most of the time.
