Chimney Stack Removal & Roof Structure Rebuild

For this project, we were called to a property in Brighton where the old disused chimney stack had become structurally unsafe. Water ingress, deteriorating brickwork and long-term weathering had caused the chimney base to crumble internally, leading to sagging tiles and instability in the surrounding roof structure. To ensure the property remained safe and watertight, our team carried out a full chimney stack removal and roof reconstruction. The ridge tiles and surrounding concrete tiles were carefully stripped back to expose the damaged area. Once the chimney was dismantled, we removed all debris and assessed the supporting timbers, which had also weakened over time. We installed new structural timbers and securely fixed fresh battens, followed by a high-performance breathable membrane to properly weatherproof the area. The roof was then re-tiled using matching concrete tiles to blend seamlessly with the existing roof. The ridge line was re-bedded and pointed for strength, ensuring a solid and long-lasting finish. This work has restored the roof's structural integrity, eliminated the risk of leaks, and significantly improved the property's overall safety. If you need chimney removals, roof timber repairs, tile replacement, ridge re-bedding, or full roof restoration in Brighton, our experienced roofing team offers reliable and professional solutions built to last.
