A Clean Sweep Chimney Sweeping in short

A Clean Sweep Chimney Sweeping is a Market Drayton sweep run by Jeffrey Birks, listed on the NACS register with rotary and manual sweeping, pot and cowl fitting, repairs and CCTV surveys. A sweeping certificate comes with each completed sweep. That registered backing with a certificate on the day is what sets it apart.

The service list covers stoves, open fires, Agas and Rayburns with power or conventional sweeping, nest and blockage removal and spares for stoves and fires. The site offers free help, advice and quotations and says all work is fully insured and guaranteed. Booking runs by phone or email, since the website no longer resolves.

Customer evidence is thin but spotless, at 5 out of 5 on Google from three reviews, with no other review source on record. This review treats the headline as promising rather than proven: a perfect score from a small base shows willing customers, not a tested reputation. A wider review base would make this assessment firmer.

What counts against it is the thin paper trail beyond the register: a dead website, no published prices, no published insurance amounts and no checkable company record. Our verdict is that A Clean Sweep suits a Market Drayton household that wants a registered sweep with NACS membership behind the name and a certificate on the day.

Our verdict

Our verdict: A Clean Sweep suits you if you want a Market Drayton sweep with NACS membership on the register and a certificate with each sweep [1] [2]. What stands out is the registered trade backing; what counts against it is the small review base and the dead website. A wider review base would make this assessment firmer.
