Costessey sits just west of Norwich along the Wensum valley, and its mix of post-war housing and older village properties means chimney stacks here vary widely in age, construction and condition.
The older cottages and semi-detached houses in Old Costessey village retain original chimney stacks built with soft handmade brick that is particularly vulnerable to frost damage. In newer parts of the parish, stack failures are often linked to poor original construction or prolonged lack of maintenance after properties switched to gas heating.
Whether the stack is leaning, the pointing is failing or you have noticed damp patches on an upstairs chimney breast, we can assess and rebuild using materials suited to the age of the house. We cover Costessey regularly from our base in Wymondham, so response times are short.
