Removal of Chimney Breast

Many homeowners underestimate the structural implications of chimney stacks, but we’ve developed efficient, safe and practical solutions to allow full or partial removal.

Removing a chimney stack may seem straightforward, but this particular one was calculated at approximately 10 tonnes and also contributed to the lateral stability of the external wall.

To safely achieve the client’s vision, we designed a steel frame to:
✅ Support the significant vertical loads from the remaining stack above
✅ Re-establish lateral restraint to the external wall
✅ Minimise additional foundation works, avoiding unnecessary disruption and cost.
✅ Ensure the steel components can be moved into place and installed with a robust method statement.
