Filling large hole in wall left by old boiler flue

[Neil Sherwood]

Hi, I had my boiler replaced but it has left a large hole in my solid brick wall.

Any idea what is the best way to fill this in?

Thanks for advice!

With the head of whoever replaced the boiler.

Alternatively, use bricks.

If they core drilled a new hole in the wall for the new boiler flue use the nicely rounded brick bits left over.

If not, then get creative with an angle grinder with diamond disk!

OP,
grind out the beds and perps of four bricks surrounding the hole - remove the four whole whole bricks.
then replace the bricks like for like.
use decorators tape on the existing brick edges when you point back up - the tape will protect against splodgy pointing.
