Poringland Roofers removes unwanted chimney stacks in Hellesdon, a suburb where a large proportion of the housing dates from the interwar and early post-war decades.
Hellesdon grew substantially during the 1930s and again after the Second World War, producing streets of brick-built semis and detacheds around Middleton's Lane and Hellesdon Road that are now approaching or past eighty years old. Many carry the original clay chimney pots on stacks that served fireplaces converted to gas in the 1970s and subsequently blocked off entirely. When the flaunching around those pots breaks down - as it does on most stacks of that age - water enters the stack and can cause damp patches on chimney breasts inside the house before the leak is traced.
Taking a redundant stack down to below the roof line and making good the felt, battens and tiles is a lasting fix. We work across Hellesdon regularly and can arrange a free survey at short notice - call us to get the process started.
