Posted October 4, 2023

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

- Secondary glazing to a back bay window
  
  By Sue · Posted 2 minutes ago
  
  I have a single glazed bay window in my kitchen. All my other windows (including a separate window in my kitchen) are double glazed. I had a quote to fit double glazing to the bay. It was extremely high and I wasn't willing to pay such a lot for a room I don't spend a vast amount of time in. Has anybody had secondary glazing fitted to a back bay window, and if so was it successful and did it look ok from the inside? And what sort of price can I expect to pay?

  ditto - the lack of respect the organisers / council have for the impact on the wildlife and damage to the park is the reason I protest the Gala on its current site. The noise is secondary

  Not sure about that - I'm personally not too bothered by the noise, despite living possibly the closest to the site. I am bothered by the impact on all the wildlife, as should hopefully everyone with a conscience and who care about their community?
