About JB sweeps
Your Local Chimney Sweep in Dursley
Hi, I'm James — the chimney sweep behind JB Sweeps. I cover Dursley and the surrounding villages, helping homeowners get their open fires and log burners ready to use safely and cleanly. Every sweep is carried out thoroughly, and I never leave without making sure the place is as tidy as I found it.
I know how important it is to turn up when I say I will and to get on with the job without fuss. Whether it's your first sweep or you're looking for someone reliable to come back to each year, I'll give you an honest assessment of your flue's condition and straightforward advice on keeping it working well.
After every sweep I issue a certificate you can keep for your records or pass to your insurer. If I spot anything that warrants a closer look, I'll tell you plainly and without any pressure.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What happens during a chimney sweep?
I arrive with dust sheets and all the equipment needed to sweep your flue from bottom to top. Soot and debris are collected cleanly, the fireplace is left tidy, and I carry out a visual check of the flue's condition while I work. The whole process typically takes under an hour.
How much does a chimney sweep cost?
Every job is quoted before I start — pricing is clear and straightforward with no hidden charges. Get in touch for a free quote based on your fireplace or stove type.
Are you insured and do you issue certificates?
Yes, I'm fully insured and I issue a sweep certificate after every appointment. This is useful for your home insurance policy, landlord records, or simply for your own peace of mind.
How long does a chimney sweep take?
Most domestic sweeps take between 45 minutes and an hour. I'll give you a realistic idea of timing when you book so you can plan your day accordingly.
How do I know if my chimney needs sweeping?
Open fires should be swept at least once a year, and wood-burning stoves at least once a season if used regularly. If your fire is smoking back into the room, the draw feels sluggish, or it's been more than a year since the last sweep, it's time to book. I'll also give you an honest assessment during the visit itself.
What areas do you cover?
I'm based in Dursley and cover the surrounding area including Wotton-under-Edge, Nailsworth, Berkeley, Stroud, Tetbury, Thornbury, Stonehouse and Gloucester. Not sure if you're in range? Just give me a call.
