Useful information
Compare the roof stack, internal chimney breast and complete flue route. The agreed extent determines which interfaces and finishes need assessment.
These are principle drawings, not drawings of your property. Dimensions, support arrangements and execution details require a site assessment and, where needed, a structural design.
SV-01 · Principle detail
The section connects the fireplace, flue on each floor and roof stack. Floor lines show why the visible chimney breast cannot be assessed in isolation.
Record what is visible and unknown on each floor. Existing drawings may not include later alterations.
SV-02 · Principle detail
The dashed volume identifies the proposed external removal. The internal shaft remains in this situation. Roof closure and the condition of the remaining flue are separate items in the scope.
Check connections and shared flues before removing the stack. The illustrated boundary is not a cutting line or demolition sequence.
SV-03 · Principle detail
The red outline marks the desired clear indoor space. Upper masonry remains in this option, making permanent support and the complete load path key questions for the structural engineer.
Do not assume a floor or wall can carry the retained chimney. Both temporary and permanent conditions need a design.
SV-04 · Principle detail
The flue route is marked on each floor. Removal creates separate repairs at the roof, floors, walls and ceilings. The drawing helps describe the complete finished result in the quotation.
Include every floor in the scope. Complete removal does not automatically include decorating or new floor finishes.
Include the address, existing plans, photographs, the parts to remain and your preferred finish with your enquiry. A designer or structural engineer establishes which measurements, investigations and documents are needed.
