I am looking for advise on a trusted chimney surveyor to come and assess why there is penetrative damp in my chimney breast wall and sloping ceiling.

We had roof work done a few months ago and after this happened (the damp patch appeared) had the roofers back to replace all the lead flashing and do some repointing to the chimney.

Not a recommended roofer didn’t like their service and think their work previously has caused the issue.

But now I want yo make sure there is no leak and if there is any issue with the chimney stack itself letting water in.

Any recommendations for chimney/roof surveyors?

anyone used Alpine Surveyors drone service before?

The house is big divided into flats and the roof is really high up so for proper survey scaffolding is required.

Any advise help to find a trusted surveyor or expert who will find the issue and be able to resolve it?

already had damp specialist out and Aspect damp/roof expert.

loft is above my flat and no damp in loft or the wall in lift above chimney.

thanks

  I haven't had a rude EVRI delivery but last week I had an unexpected delivery at 10.42 pm. He didn't ring the bell or knock on the door (or rattle the letter flap) but just took a photo and put the box down. If it hadnt been for the door camera giving us a beep we would never have known there was a parcel ready to sit there all night.

  Sorry if I’m being slow but there’s no point in having a gate then is there? Would have thought it was basic manners to respect someone’s property

  I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open.

  I have a rescue Spanish greyhound (galgo) from the charity mentioned above. You can contact Greyhounds in Need or one of the more local Kent greyhound rescue charities. They are fantastic family dogs. They do love walkies 2 or 3 times a day but they actually don't need to be walked too far and then they will happily loaf around on the sofa being very chill. They are brilliant with kids but not recommended if you own a cat as they have a strong prey drive. They also should be kept on the lead in local parks. They prefer to be around other sight-hounds (well my one does) and there are loads of local sighthound owners in Peckham, Crystal Palace etc and a very lively WhatsApp group that is brilliant if you need dog sitting as you can usually find someone to do that for free in return for you looking after the dog at a later date etc.
