Case Study
Grade 2 Listed Building
Chimney rebuild
Scope of Works
We were called to site to attend to a Chimney on a 3 storey Grade 2 listed
building in Wolverhampton town centre, the chimney was in a
precarious position with sections falling onto the pedestrian area.
Completed Chimney Rebuilt Chimney on a 3 story Grade 2 building in
Wolverhampton town centre
The chimney was in a dilapidated state with the stone work beyond repair, the pointing and brickwork
was all blown.
Chimney Pre works
We started by scaffolding and supporting the Chimney to ensure
the safety of both staff and pedestrians, we then secured the brickwork by netting around the
chimney.
We then broke down the Chimney into constituent parts to check if
any of the brickwork was still viable, we then removed the stonework which was beyond
repair
Stonework removed and secured
We removed the stones to a Local stonemason whose company made and installed the original stonework
over 100 years previously, these were then remade to the exact requirements
The works took a total of 6 weeks including the complete remake of all
the stonework from Scratch, the works were all carried out and inspected by the relevant authorities. The Chimney
is now ready for the next 100 years service.
