# Brabiner Maintenance – Comprehensive Services Across Lancashire
Brabiner Maintenance, based in Preston and run by Paul Gavaghan, is a distinctly multi-disciplinary operation that tackles everything from chimney sweeping to environmental consultancy. Unlike typical one-trade businesses, Paul's expertise spans four major service areas, making him a genuinely versatile problem-solver for both domestic and commercial clients.
The chimney and fireplace division is comprehensive, encompassing full sweeping services, stove fitting, liner installation and a substantial stock of branded stoves including Tiger, Morso and Firefox. Paul supplies fire grates, ash-pans, flue liners and specialist treatments like Sorcerer creosote sachets, plus the less common items such as jackdaw deterrents and stove rope.
The weed control operation focuses on invasive species management—particularly Japanese Knotweed and Ragwort—using both chemical treatments and sensitive approaches suitable for water environments. This extends to broader ground maintenance and moss control contracts.
What genuinely sets Brabiner Maintenance apart is the environmental and wildlife consultancy strand. Paul's credentials include specialist advisory work on the Everton dockyard project, where he managed fish relocation and wildlife protection. He now offers domestic and commercial environmental surveys, wildlife relocation services, fishing lessons and even supplies smoked fish and eels.
This combination of practical trade skills, environmental expertise and conservation credentials means clients gain access to someone who understands both immediate maintenance needs and their broader ecological implications.
