Why Choose Us?
Solving Damp and Structural Issues from Redundant Chimneys
Many older properties in Preston feature chimney stacks that are no longer in use. Over time, these redundant stacks can develop cracks in the mortar, porous brickwork, or failed lead flashing. This often results in dampness tracking down the chimney breast into your living spaces. In many cases, removing the stack down to below the roofline is the most cost-effective way to eliminate these problems once and for all.When we perform a chimney removal in Preston, we don't just take away the bricks; we carefully restore the roof structure. This involves installing new rafters or battens where necessary and matching your existing slate or tiles perfectly to ensure the repair is invisible from the ground. This process not only stops leaks but also improves the overall structural integrity of your roofing system.

Who We Are
Should You Choose Chimney Removal or Professional Capping?
If you wish to keep the external appearance of your chimney but want to stop heat loss and weather damage, chimney capping is an excellent alternative to full removal. An uncapped, unused chimney acts like a giant straw, drawing warm air out of your home and allowing rain and debris to enter.Capping and Venting: We install weather-resistant cowls or caps that prevent rain from entering while still allowing the stack to 'breathe'. This prevents internal condensation and rot.Complete Removal: Ideal for stacks that are leaning, severely decayed, or in the way of a planned house extension.Partial Lowering: Reducing the height of a stack to make it safer while retaining its character.Our specialists can advise you on the best course of action during a site visit, ensuring your choice complies with all local building regulations.
