Do you travel out to farms and steadings?

Yes, rural Angus is a large part of our work. Farmhouses and converted steadings often have tall, cold, unlined stacks with several bends, so a CCTV survey before quoting saves everyone a wasted visit.

How exposed are chimneys on the Angus coast?

Very, between Arbroath and Montrose. Onshore wind creates pressure over the roofline that pushes down the flue, which is felt indoors as a stove that will not draw on a gusty day. An anti-downdraught cowl fixes most of it.

Do you charge extra for a village call-out?

No call-out fee. We group village visits so several nearby properties are done on the same run, which keeps the price the same as a town job.

Can you work around a holiday let changeover?

We can. Short-let owners usually need a mid-week slot between guests, and we will hold a time rather than give a vague window that risks a booking.

Does an open fire need the same attention as a stove?

It needs more sweeping, not less. An open fire sends far more unburnt material up the flue than a modern closed appliance, so deposits build faster even though the fire feels gentler.

Notes from our work in Muirhead

Out in rural Muirhead, a stove often takes the place of a central heating system rather than supplementing one. That changes how we recommend sizing the appliance and specifying the flue.

If something has gone wrong with your stove or chimney, we'd rather you stop using it until we've had a look. We can usually get out promptly to assess and advise.

Many Muirhead households are busy commuter families who value the warmth and ambience of a stove during evenings and weekends
