What is chimney building?
Chimney building is an art, requiring years of training and experience. It should always be entrusted to a experience chimney builder.
It is essential that chimneys are built correctly and to current British Building Regulations, this is to ensure that the chimney stack is sound and unlikely to collapse due to poor construction.
If the chimney stack does not comply, it could invalidate your insurance in the event of a problem. It is also important for any fire or stove that the air flows through it quickly and efficiently in order for the fuel to burn cleanly to produce the desired heat. This means that any chimney must have good air flow.
