Bacton's coastal position means chimney stacks take a relentless battering from sea air and salt-laden winds, accelerating the deterioration that makes a take-down the safest long-term option.
Properties along and behind the Bacton seafront — including the bungalows and post-war semis that make up much of the village — often have chimneys that were built for solid-fuel appliances long since removed. Salt air corrodes mortar joints and erodes brick faces faster here than almost anywhere inland, and a stack that looks solid from the ground can be dangerously unsound by the time you notice missing pointing.
We take stacks down to below the roofline, strip out the redundant flue lining, and tile over to a weathertight finish using materials matched to the existing roof. All work is fully insured and we cover Bacton regularly. Ring us to book a free site inspection.
