Apart from my first reaction, do they still exist? The last time I saw a
chimney sweep was sometime before the moon landing.
The other and more important to OSM is, do they have a physical
presence? It is the type of trade
Now as we have clarified that they still exist, we could come back
to the original question what would be the best tag.
I agree that craft=chimney_sweep is less ambiguous than =sweep

We do have office=administrative and office=government but no appropriate
