Full breakdown in the roof repair cost guide.
Flashing leaks show as damp next to the breast after wind-driven rain. Pointing leaks show as persistent damp on the breast wall inside.
If it is unused and leaking, removal is often cheaper over ten years than repeated repairs. We quote both.
Usually not, unless the house is listed or in a conservation area. Building Regulations apply if the breast is removed inside.
Very rarely. Anything at chimney height needs scaffold for your safety and ours.
