The finished cowl is the part everyone sees, but most of the important work sits further down the chimney.

This was the point where the new flexible liner with the pot-hanging cowl was ready to be carefully fed down through the chimney. It’s one of those parts of an installation that disappears once the job is finished, but getting it right matters.

The liner has to be handled properly on its way down, without damaging or distorting it, before everything is connected and secured.

The second photograph shows a finished result up top. Neat, straightforward and doing exactly what it ought to.

Not a bad bit of Yorkshire scenery behind it, either.

Proper Stove Service

From the outside, it still looked fairly respectable, but opening the door revealed the full story. Ash, deposits, and general use had accumulated around the firebox and internal parts—as naturally happens over a burning season.

The appliance was carefully cleaned, with the removable parts taken out so the areas behind them could be properly accessed. Once everything was checked and replaced, the difference was obvious.

No major rebuild and no unnecessary fuss. Just a well-used stove given the thorough attention it required.

Clean work and a cracking result.

A bit of the work that usually goes unseen.

Getting safely up to chimney level is only the beginning. Tools and materials still need to be taken up, the work around the chimney pot needs to be done properly, and everything has to come safely back down again.

It might only make a few seconds of video, but there’s a fair bit involved behind the scenes. No shortcuts—just steady, careful work from the bottom of the ladder to the top of the chimney.

Not a bad view from the office, mind.

A stove can look perfectly serviceable from the outside while hiding a serious fault behind the firebox.

The rear blanking plate had eroded so badly that it had fallen out completely. You can see it missing in the first photograph, along with the loose debris inside the firebox.

The stove was cleaned through, the internal components were dealt with, and the failed blanking plate was replaced with a brand-new one; the gasket in the spigot was also replaced. Once everything was put back together, the stove was fully operational and safe to use again.

Not just a cosmetic tidy-up this time—a worthwhile repair to an important part of the appliance, followed by a proper clean and a much better finished result.

A little thank you from me...

We've recently passed the milestone of 150 five-star Google reviews, and I just wanted to say thank you.

Every review has been left by someone who's trusted us to work in their home, and we never take that for granted.

Running a small local business has its ups and downs, so when someone takes a couple of minutes to leave a review or recommend Bingley Chimney, it genuinely means a lot. It helps more than most people realise.

Whether you've had your chimney swept, serviced, a stove fitted, a cowl installed, a bird rescued, or you've liked, shared or recommended my page, thank you. Your support has helped Bingley Chimney grow through word of mouth, and I couldn't ask for better.

Here's to keeping families safe, keeping chimneys working as they should, and hopefully helping plenty more customers for years to come. Thanks again for all your support – it really does mean the world

I appreciate every one of you.

Cheers,

Greg

Watch how we rescued this poor bird trapped in the mid-section of the flue and then fitted a top-quality Midtec cowl to prevent it from happening again.

Most people only ever see the finished stove. They never see what goes on above the roof.
Here's a quick look at part of a stove installation, fitting a new chimney pot, dropping a top-quality flue liner and finishing it off with a new cowl.
It's hard work, especially carrying everything safely across a pitched roof, but it's all part of making sure the installation is done properly from top to bottom.

We thought we'd share a bit of the process, as it's not something many people get to see.

Hope you enjoy the video.

Another job completed today. This was a Mazona Warwick 5kW multi-fuel stove, fitted with a top-quality flexible flue liner, a tall chimney pot, and a matching chimney cowl, providing the customer with a safe, efficient setup ready for many winters ahead. There's something satisfying about restoring an old fireplace. By the time we finished, it looked like it had always been there—a big thank you to the customer for choosing Bingley Chimney. We hope you enjoy many cosy evenings in front of your new stove. I also have a few behind-the-scenes clips from the installation, so I'll put together a short video and share it soon

This afternoon's job was a little different.
A homeowner called after hearing a jackdaw trapped down the chimney. After a bit of patience, we managed to get the little fella out safely, and before you knew it, it was off back into the Yorkshire sky.
Rather than leave it to happen again, I fitted a chimney cowl before I left. A simple fix that should stop any more unwanted visitors finding their way into the chimney.
It's not every day you get to rescue a bird, but jobs like this are all part of the job, and it's always nice to leave knowing everyone's had a better day than when you arrived.
Here's a short video from this afternoon's rescue.
