Hello there, thanks for looking at the post.
I have a question on how to deal with this situation re the foundation after chimney removal.
I have removed the entire chimney from top to bottom, i have dug up abt 10 inch down from my floor (room) but no sign of slab/concrete floor where the chimney base was. There was a clear plastic underneath but broken. All i can see is hardcore type material coming out but no sign of floor whatsoever.
The question is how do i deal with this ? Do i just lay some concrete/mortar and level it up to the floor? Do i need to use any DPC membrane or insulation ?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
An example image i have attached is similar to what I have.
