Bird’s Nests Removal, Supply and fitting of Chimney Cowls
Birds Nest removal September to March only
Bird’s Nests Removal
Between 1st March and 1st September it is an offence under the Wildlife and Countryside Act to destroy, tamper with or do any bird’s nests removal while it is in use. This also includes blocking access by means of a chimney cowl.
If you suspect you have birds nesting in your chimney DO NOT TRY TO LIGHT THE FIRE. You run the risk of a chimney fire, or worse, carbon monoxide leaking into the room.
Out of season we offer removal of the nests and will check via CCTV that the chimney has no further obstructions. We always recommend that our customers fit a cowl on a working fire. Disused chimneys should also be capped with a vent cowl. This not only prevents the possibility of new nests, but also helps to keep heat in. It will also reduce future water ingress which leads to damp.
We only use stainless steel British-made chimney cowls guaranteed against breakage. We have cowls in a range of colours suitable for all appliances and atmospheric situations.
