Advice required please..........
I am considering removing my chimney breast, brief detail as follows:
Small 3 bed semi, 1970`s, chimney on outside wall.
Chimney has been removed above roof level and roofd re-slated, etc.
What remains is approx 1 foot square of chimney in loft and one bedroom.
Chimney breast in main living room approx 1ft deep, 4 foot wide.
would like to remove in order to create extra space in bedroom and particularly living room.
Would love to hear anyone else`s experiences of doing something similar or indeed any advice/suggestions.
Not likely to be doing this project myself (maybe loft & bedroom stack removal at most), will be caling in builders to do main removal and make good.
Any help/stories/suggestions welcomed.
Thanks
Mike
