I had a builder that was taking my chimney breast down and told me to get the gallow brackets and support, but now he cannot do the job through illness.
I had another builder in yesterday to price the job up and he is saying something completely different!
He is saying that the chimney needs to be longer then the last measurement as it cannot be shorter then the chimney on the roof. It is a joining chimney to my next door neighbour.
My first builder said it doesn't have to be longer because it is tied in???
Anyone know if any of this is right! I am thinking of getting a structural engineer in to have a look!
Thanks in advance!
