Not without an inspection first. Flues can become blocked by bird nests, debris, or creosote buildup over summer — a blocked flue is a serious carbon monoxide and fire hazard. We recommend a professional flue sweep and firebox inspection before the first use of every season.
The most common causes are a blocked or partially blocked flue, a flue that is too short for the chimney height, a cold flue that needs warming before use, or a firebox that is too large for the flue diameter. We inspect and diagnose the cause before recommending a fix — most smoking issues are correctable without rebuilding.
A flue sweep clears creosote deposits, soot, and any debris from the inside of the flue pipe and chimney. For a wood-burning fireplace used regularly, this should be done annually — ideally in autumn before the winter season. Creosote buildup is the primary cause of chimney fires.
Yes. We install wood-burning, gas, and built-in fireplaces in existing homes. Installation requirements vary by fireplace type — wood-burning units need a flue and sufficient air supply, while gas fireplaces need a gas supply line. We assess the space and advise on the best option for your home.
Minor repairs such as a flue sweep, damper replacement, or firebox repointing typically cost R800–R2,500. More extensive work like firebox lining, lintel replacement, or structural chimney repairs depends on the scope. We provide a free inspection and written quote before any work begins.
