Stove assessment and great advice
Had a problem the stove in a house we’d recently moved into, Peadar called out to us incredibly quickly and was able advise on how to manage our fuel, ventilation and stove set up to make sure everything was working safely. Sorted us out with the chimney cowl we needed as well. Delighted with the service and would highly recommend.
Satisfied
Thanks Peadar and crew for doing a great job – no fuss, efficient and no delays – the stove looks great!
Great work
Top men, TOP JOB, fair price. Ta
Seasoned pro’s
Paddar is wonderful, his team work fast, clean, and are thorough. They used a lot of vermiculite, good quality flexi-flu, and good quality hardware. They sealed up the holes they made tastefully and left the house clean. Their price was very fair for the quality of their work. I’m a satisfied customer.
Brilliant Job
Peader and his team did a marvelous job on our chimney rebuild – quick, efficient and extremely tidy. A very sympathetic finish to our 19th century house. Would highly recommend.
Replacement of two Chimneys
Peadar and his team provided exceptional service in replacing two chimneys. The entire process—from the initial consultation through to delivery and completion – was executed to a very high standard. The team were professional, offered fair pricing and left the grounds clean and tidy.
Thanks Peadar.
Installation and the stove
Peadar and his team did a super job installing the full setup of the stove in our sitting room. Very clean setup and looks great- we have a cream carpet in that room. Peadar was there to assist and help with any questions I had during the install and after. The weather has turned in the last few weeks and I have started to light the stove – very easy to light and looks and feels great. Thank you so much Peadar and team.
Excellent Workmanship and fair pricing.
I had my chimney rebuilt and a wood burning stove installed. I am very pleased with all aspects of the work which was carried out by Peadar and his dedicated crew to an exceptionally high standard. I would recommend Cork Chimney specialists without hesitation to prospective customers.
Professional & Reliable
Peadar & his team did a great job repairing a dangerous chimney cap that had started to disintegrate.
Prompt, reliable & professional throughout, I’d have no hesitation in recommending Cork Chimney Specialists.

Double Satisfaction – A Tour de force
I had benefited from Peadar’s expertise previously and so I had no hesitation in collaborating with him again on this project.
His technical knowledge, practical skills and professional qualities were just what I needed to deal with an older house with two chimney issues. Peadar is a gentleman and a pleasure to deal with. Following a phone conversation with Peadar I knew that I could leave the job in his safe hands. I was not onsite for the project. Peadar had a vision for the project, and I gave him permission to work on his own initiative. With old chimneys one can expect the unexpected which was so in our case. Peadar provided clear, effective communication throughout, through what’s app, email and phone calls, regular updates to explain findings, and recommended solutions. Peadar and his team were considerate and had a courteous and sympathetic attitude towards both us the clients and our property, recognising the history of the house. I more than appreciate the challenging work involved and at the end of the second day I received photos of the completed work. I was blown away and even more so when I got to see it in person.
The only evidence that work had been conducted was a skip bag in the garden awaiting collection. I commented that the rooms involved were cleaner after the project than before the work started.
I met with Peadar a few days later to discuss the project. Talking to Peadar you get his sense of pride in his work, and he speaks so highly of his team. To say that I am thrilled with the outcome is an understatement. It is wonderful to have the chimney of the open fireplace repaired and years build-up of birds nest removed and to be able to light a fire there after decades of non-use. There was a complete refurbishment of the second chimney and fireplace. I have peace of mind knowing that the chimneys are safe to use.
I loved that the original fire surround was upcycled, honouring my ancestors and a stove upgrade, positioned in a more secure and more practical setting within the fireplace.
I highly recommend Peadar and his team.
People have asked Us?
Homeowners are urged to have their chimneys inspected for creosote buildup and cleaned if necessary in the spring of each year. Chimney fires are characterized by loud cracking or popping noises and a lot of dense smoke from the flue, but often times go undetected by the homeowner.
When your chimney is not cleaned for a long time, a substance called creosote keeps building up in the flue during the use of the fireplace. This creosote is highly flammable and can lead to a dangerous chimney fire (an uncontrolled 2000 degree fire burning inside the chimney)
A wood burning stove is likely to be 65% efficient, while an open fire is 30% efficient at best. Typically (but not always) stoves are made of heavy-duty steel, so offer radiant heat, acting as a radiator, as well.
The cost of an installed fire stove starts around €1,500 and can get as high as about €5,000. The average wood stove will cost from €3,000 to €3,500, installed.
Most of the heat escapes out of the chimney, leaving the room feeling cooler than it should be. On the other hand, wood burning stoves can provide 3x as much heat with 1/3 of the firewood, meaning they are more efficient and offer more heating power than open burning fireplaces.
