Right.. another issue!
I have a ridge beam from one lenght of the house to the other..
It seems the builder today has made a hole on my side of the chimney (on the 3rd party side)
I dont know if this is right, I assume he will mount a padstone in the chimey and rest the rsj on it and then seal it / make it good.
I am sure metal expands with heat, thus would it not crack overtime leaving me and my family exposed to carbon monoxide ?
Should I now be installing chimney liners ? I cant see any other way he would be mounting the RSJ.
