Alterations to fireplaces
Alterations to openings can include, height and width adjustments, replacing lintels, removal and fitting of hearths, surrounds and mantels.
Camera surveys
Camera Surveys can help identify problem chimneys including; leaks, birds nests, damaged or corroded liners, cracks in mortar etc... This liner is seriously corroded and serves as a major health and safety risk to the inhabitants of the house.
Chimney maintenance and repairs
Chimneys occasionally need attention. Plants left to grow will send their roots deep into the mortar and cause it to break up. Its better to have plants removed early to avoid unnecessary costs later. Over time Chimneys can also suffer from weather damage. Repointing the mortar of a damaged chimney will help ensure the stack is weatherproof.
