Diss Roofers carries out chimney take-downs in Gislingham, a quiet Suffolk village where older cottage properties often carry stacks well past their useful life.
Gislingham is a small, largely agricultural village between Eye and Finningham, characterised by traditional Suffolk farmhouses, period cottages, and a handful of converted agricultural buildings. Chimneys on these older properties are typically clay-pot stacks in lime mortar, and once the fireplaces below are sealed, the stacks become a liability — absorbing rainwater, freezing and cracking through winter, and eventually allowing damp to track down through the roof space.
We remove stacks cleanly and carefully, paying particular attention to the junction between the chimney and the roof covering — often plain clay tiles on these older buildings — and finish with properly dressed lead to keep the repair seamless and long-lasting.
