During a sweep the flue is brushed clean from bottom to top with flexible rods and a brush sized to the flue. Loosened soot is collected at the bottom and removed; the professional works with dust sheets, so the room stays clean.

You pay € 60 to € 100 per flue. The price depends on the flue type, the fuel and the time since the last sweep — caked-on soot and creosote (from wood burning) take more time. Note: the flue must be cold, so don't light a fire for at least 24 hours beforehand.

Advice: have a used wood-burning flue swept at least once a year; many insurers also ask for this on a used chimney — check your policy terms and keep the sweeping certificate.
