Bird Nest Removal by Safe-Sweep

Having a bird’s nests in a chimney is very common but could cause all sorts of problems if left alone. Most importantly it poses a huge fire risk; causing damage to your health and your property. The bird nest can also accumulate moisture causing damp problems in the property.

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.

Safe-Sweep Chimney Sweeps have experience in bird nest removal. We use specialist equipment to thoroughly removed the disused nest.

For the protection of wildlife we generally will not remove a nest in the months of March to August and will only remove a disused bird nest.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.

How Bad Could It Be?
