How We Perform Chimney Breast Removals On The Wirral
The first step we would take in preforming a chimney breast removal on the Wirral after of course contacting our structural engineer and setting up the site would be to structurally prop up the loads above the chimney breast .
We would do this by temporarily propping up structural supports which would be temporarily installed above the chimney breast . From there we could then safely remove the chimney breast as the loads above would be secure .
Once we have safely removed the chimney breast and carefully disposed of any brickwork we would then install gallows brackets above where the chimney breast was and this would totally and safely bear the loads above it. The installation of gallows brackets is a speciality procedure and it is best for only structural specialists to carry this out . We would finalise by cleaning up .
