Job Description

im looking for someone to estimate the cost of a possible chimney repair, over the last few days we have noticed a wet patch appearing on the ceiling just where the chimney runs through the loft.We have just had the hallway re plastered and noticed the wet patch so are looking for a prompt repair before it ruins the new plaster.

Job Description

Fitting a Log Burner in a late 1800s house. Will be in the kitchen chimney, and will require a flue fitting.

We already have a log burner, from an old house which is cast iron and high quality, so we would like that fitting.

Depending on the price of fitting, we would also like to have the chimney knocked through and prepared for the flue and logburner, however it may have to be DIY if the price of fitting is quite high.

Roof access is simple, with a second floor roof in good condition.

I imagine we will also probably need an extra flue going from the log burner to the chimney flue as well if the lintel is quite high, as is often the case with these older houses.

Quote please to include labour and materials!

Job Description

I have a loose chimney pot that either needs replacing with a vent cap or stabilising with concrete (whichever is more practical). It is one of three chimney pots (the largest and in the middle of the other two).

Job Description

Removing disused chimney stack that had the pot blown over due to high winds (which has now been taken down) and tile over on a 1964 bungalow. Job needed to be done quickly as we do not want water getting down the breast causing damp. We have an electric fire now but have previously had condensation problems so would need to be done properly and perhaps venting????

* The following information was added Thursday, 12th November, 2009 :
I think some people have got confused by what I mean capping the chimney. What I mean is I need to stop the rain and rubbish coming down the chimney.
I will not be using it at the present but just want it capped so that I dont have any more rain come down.

Thank you
