Poringland Roofers carries out chimney take-downs across Norwich, from the Victorian terraces of Earlham to the Edwardian semis of Unthank Road.
Norwich has an exceptionally varied housing stock - pre-war bay-fronted semis, Georgian townhouses in the Golden Triangle, post-war council builds on Mousehold, and converted flint-faced cottages on the city fringe. Many of these properties carry chimney stacks that served coal fires removed decades ago, and are now cracking, leaning or letting water into the stack beneath the flaunching. A deteriorating stack above a Norwich terrace can shed brickwork onto a shared party wall or a busy pavement, so early action matters.
We take the stack down to below roof level, reform the roof structure and covering - whether clay pantile, Welsh slate or concrete tile - and leave the area fully weathertight and tidy. We work throughout the city and can usually give you a free survey within a few days of your call.
