Dilham's canal-side cottages and rural brick-built homes are charming, but their ageing chimney stacks often need taking down before they cause serious roof or structural damage.
Sitting alongside the North Walsham and Dilham Canal, the village has a distinctive character with properties that blend agricultural vernacular and modest Victorian terraces. Many were originally heated by open-range stoves or back boilers long since replaced, leaving chimney stacks standing idle and slowly deteriorating. Unused stacks in this damp, low-lying environment are particularly prone to frost damage and spalling brickwork.
We take the stack down to just below the roof surface, make good the tile covering and ensure the area is fully weatherproofed — no temporary patch, a permanent finish. Dilham is on our regular North Norfolk run. Get in touch to arrange a free, no-obligation chimney inspection.
