This may well be a chimney that perhaps served a redundant bedroom fireplace, but can you be sure?<\/p>\n<p>If your chimney stack has multiple open chimney pots at the top, it will be difficult for you to determine whether the blockage is in a working chimney or not. So, what should you do next? \u00a0Well in the first instance, DO NOT ATTEMPT to light your appliance be that solid fuel or gas.

Like the Jackdaw, they too are very territorial, and have been known to attack sweeps when attempting to remove their nest. This type of work can be extremely dangerous, and that is why it is imperative\u00a0 you employ a professional who knows exactly how to deal with such situations.<\/p>\n<p>Under the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.legislation.gov.uk\/ukpga\/1981\/69\/section\/1\"><em>Wildlife and Country Act,<\/em><\/a><em>\u00a0<\/em>it is an offence to destroy or remove a nest during the nesting season which lasts from late February to August. It is most likely necessary to have to wait until the end of August before checking that the nest is empty and can be removed. The only real main exception to this would be if you relied on the appliance as the only form of heating, which is most rare nowadays, but even then, full checks would need to be carried out prior to any work.<\/p>\n<p>Howards (Tarleton) has specialist equipment and the expertise to remove nests safely and are also able to fully bird\/vermin proof your chimney so you don\u2019t get the same problem occurring again, as it is proven that they will return year on year to the same nest.<\/p>\n<p>A nest blocking a redundant bedroom chimney for example could lead to severe damp problems inside the property. The nest will become very saturated with the weather conditions, and eventually start showing through plastered walls. All this can be avoided.<\/p>\n<p>Howard\u2019s (Tarleton) carry full liability insurance and as well as being Master Chimney Sweep members of the Guild of Master Chimney Sweeps, we are also HETAS registered and Gas Safe registered, as well as being Ladder and Roof Safety qualified.
