Why Remove a Chimney Breast?
People may want to remove a chimney breast for a variety of different reasons but the most common being the amount of extra space it creates. Chimney breasts come in all different sizes and can protrude quite a way into a room which can make if difficult to have the layout of the room the way you would like to have it.
Fortunately this doesn’t need to be a problem as it is possible to remove all or part of the chimney breast thus creating the much needed space sought after. This will normally need some chimney breast support or other remedial works carried out to make good following the structural alteration.
What Chimney Breast Support Is Required?
Before we even begin to fit or out the required support in place, the first thing we must do is have a structural engineer inspect or survey the structure so that a set of proven structural calculations can be produced to establish what loads need to be supported ETC. Without these calculations, it would merely be guessing what the correct chimney breast support system is.
As one of the best and proven chimney breast removal companies Liverpool Structural Builders never guess. We follow an engineers detail to ensire that we are carrying all of the work out safely and to regulations.
Depending on the project, we may use chimney breast gallows brackets or perhaps even a steel beam or RSJ support. It all depends on the structure and what the engineer deems as the best way to adequately support the remaining structure in place. There are times however, when no support is required at all. This may be the case when the whole chimney breast is being removed from the ground and all the way thorugh the roof including the chimney stack on top. Here it would mean remedial work to the roof only and some making good to the floors where the breast was.
Permissions Chimney Breast Removal Companies May Need to Apply For
To remove a chimney breast is to carry out a structural alteration so this would normally require building regulations approval. Also, depending on whether or not the chimney breast is shared, it may even need a party wall agreement for chimney breast removal.
Whichever the case, our team can organise and manage everything on your behalf from concept to completion. We can arrange for the initial structural survey, the building regulations application and of course, we will carry out the chimney breast removal itself.
Once the structural work has been completed, it will be inspected by the local building inspector and once passed it can be re-plastered and made good. A completion certificate will then be provided by the councils building inspector to confirm that everything has been done correctly and is safe.
