Chimney Removal

Chimneys can become unsafe, unused, or structurally unstable over time. At J&S Roofing & Landscaping, we provide safe and professional chimney removal services across Surrey & Sussex, ensuring your roof is fully secure, weatherproof, and neatly finished after the work is completed.

Whether you want full removal or partial dismantling, we handle everything with care and precision.

Why Remove a Chimney?

Homeowners choose chimney removal for several reasons:

  • The chimney is no longer in use
  • Structural damage or instability
  • Leaks around chimney flashing
  • Improving roof space or loft conversion plans
  • Reducing maintenance costs
  • Modernising the roof appearance

Removing a chimney can improve both safety and the overall look of your roof.

Our Chimney Removal Process

Inspection & Assessment

We carefully inspect the chimney and surrounding roof structure to plan the safest removal method.

Safe Dismantling

The chimney stack is removed section by section to avoid damage to your roof.

3

Roof Repair & Structural Work

We repair any affected roof timbers and ensure the structure remains strong and stable.

Roof Rebuilding & Weatherproofing

The roof area is fully sealed using tiles, felt, or other matching materials to ensure a seamless finish.

Final Inspection & Cleanup

We complete a full check and leave your property clean, safe, and weatherproof.
