A deposit over about a quarter of the job is unusual. Never pay one by bank transfer to a new account without a written contract. What to check before you pay

Callum swept the flue and gave it a proper safety check, no rushing, walked me through what he found and what to keep an eye on. Left everything tidy and the price was exactly what we agreed up front, no surprises. Would definitely have him back next year.

Thanks very much for the kind words, Tomasz - really glad the flue's sorted and you're set for winter. Enjoy the burner, and give us a shout same time next year for the annual sweep.
