Up and Running in 3 Steps

We handle everything — you just tell us about your business.

Tell Us About Your Chimney Sweep Business

Your services — standard sweeping, bird nest removal, CCTV flue inspections, cowl fitting, smoke testing, chimney lining — your HETAS or Guild of Master Chimney Sweeps membership, and your coverage area.

We Build Your Chimney-Trained AI

We train the AI with chimney terminology — open fires, multi-fuel stoves, class 1 and class 2 flues, register plates, carbon monoxide concerns — so it captures the appliance type, flue configuration, and last sweep date.

You Focus on the Flue, Not the Phone

While you are on a rooftop fitting a cowl or running rods through a flue, every call is handled. Carbon monoxide concerns escalated. Autumn sweep bookings, bird nest removals, and stove installation inspections captured.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do chimney sweep customers WhatsApp instead of calling?

Homeowners remember their chimney needs sweeping at 9pm when they try to light the fire and it smokes. They WhatsApp because it is quick, they can message multiple chimney sweeps simultaneously, and they can describe symptoms with photos if needed. The AI instant reply wins the booking before competitors check their messages the next morning. During the first cold snap of autumn, WhatsApp volume for chimney sweeps can increase fivefold overnight.

How does the AI handle urgent smoking chimney messages?

When a customer messages about smoke entering the room or a fire that will not draw properly, the AI responds with immediate safety advice — stop using the appliance and ventilate the room. It then asks about the appliance type, when the chimney was last swept, and whether there is a carbon monoxide detector in the room. This safety-first response builds enormous trust and positions your chimney sweeping business as professional and responsible.

Can the AI handle multi-property landlord messages?

Yes. Landlords and letting agents managing portfolios of properties with open fires or wood burners often WhatsApp their preferred chimney sweep when certificates are due. The AI captures property addresses, appliance types at each location, tenant availability for access, and the compliance deadline. These multi-property bookings — often 4 to 10 sweeps — represent efficient, route-plannable work that fills your diary.

Does WhatsApp automation handle seasonal volume spikes?

Yes. The first cold week of autumn triggers a wave of messages from homeowners who have suddenly remembered their chimney. The AI handles every message simultaneously — whether you receive 5 or 50 in an evening — with no delays, no queuing, and no extra cost. Your £29/month covers unlimited messages regardless of seasonal surges.

What does WhatsApp automation cost for chimney sweeps?

£29/month as an add-on. Unlimited messages included. One sweep booking captured — worth £55 to £80 — covers the cost immediately. During autumn peak, the AI might capture 10 to 15 additional WhatsApp bookings per week that would otherwise have gone unanswered until morning.

What is the benefit of AI WhatsApp for my chimney sweep business?

Landlords with rental properties that have open fires or wood burners need annual chimney sweeps for insurance compliance. They often WhatsApp to coordinate access across multiple properties. If you're up a chimney and can't reply, they book another sweep. Your AI responds within seconds, capturing the number of properties, appliance types, and tenant access arrangements. At £29 per month, one landlord with 5 properties at £60-£80 per sweep pays for the service for a year in a single booking.

What if my chimney sweep business changes its prices or services?

Just drop us a message — routine business updates are free and included in your plan. If you've adjusted your sweep pricing, added CCTV flue inspections to your services, or changed your autumn and winter availability, we'll update your ai whatsapp within 24 hours at no extra charge. This covers the kind of day-to-day changes any chimney sweep business makes: adjusting prices, tweaking your service list, updating opening hours, or changing your service area. We want your AI to always give your customers accurate, up-to-date information about your chimney sweep business.
