Lakenheath has a wide range of housing from older village cottages to post-war and modern builds, and chimney take-downs are among the most common jobs we do here.
Lakenheath is one of the larger villages in this part of Suffolk, with a substantial amount of housing built in the mid-twentieth century to support the nearby RAF base — much of it semi-detached or terraced with chimney stacks serving fireplaces that were sealed off decades ago. These stacks are now largely redundant but continue to let water into the roof space through cracked flaunching, failed lead trays and porous brickwork.
Removing the chimney entirely is almost always more cost-effective than repeated repair, and a chimney take-down in Lakenheath typically costs between £600 and £1,200 depending on the stack height and number of flues. We're based in Mildenhall, just a few miles away, and can usually turn around a free survey within a few days. Call us to book yours.
