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.

Can you work on listed properties in Angus conservation areas?

We can. Forfar, Brechin, Kirriemuir and Montrose all have protected buildings where external flue work is restricted. Internal solutions and sympathetic terminal choices usually solve it, and we will tell you honestly when consent is needed before we start.

Will you come out this far for a single job?

Yes. Remote properties are normal for us. We will simply suggest a date when we are already working in that direction where possible.

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.
