Role of Surveyor in Party Wall Agreement

[eastender3]

Does it?

Leaving a stack hanging out of a wall with no breast below it, should be quite worrying. And any redundant flue should be ventilated BTW.

Internal damp will react with the mortar and hasten the softening of the joints and leaning of the stack. I'm almost certain that would be in a PW surveyor's remit.

Hi Woody,
Thanks for your reply.
The stack has been removed.

Are you down to the bare breasts then???

Sorry don't know what you mean. The chimney stack has been removed by the neighbor's builder. If you could enlighten me further, as I'm not too technical, as you can see.

Have all Londoner's lost their sense of humour?

Mind you if I had to live there I probably would.

I'm just getting a bit confused.com . Not quite sure here what exactly you have left to ventilate??? A pic would help.

[QUOTE="eastender3, post: 4082496, There are no fire places have been sealed up on both homes and chimney breast had been removed before. I thought they had to put some air bricks?[/QUOTE]

If the chimney breasts have been removed both sides of the party wall and stack removed from attic and roof theres nothing left to vent.

Reinstating the party wall is all you need to be concerned about.
