Haverhill Roofers carry out chimney take-downs across Cambridge, working on everything from Victorian terraces to post-war university housing.
Cambridge has an unusually varied housing stock — tall Edwardian semis in Romsey, compact inter-war terraces in Coleridge, and converted properties close to the colleges where redundant chimney stacks are common. Many of these stacks were built in an era of coal fires and are now structurally isolated, with crumbling mortar and failing flashings that let water track into the roof space.
We take stacks down to below roof level, make the remaining brickwork good, and fully re-tile or re-slate the area around the former flashing line. All rubble is removed from site, and every job is fully insured — call us for a free chimney survey before water damage takes hold.
