Join us as we tackle the monstrous task of chimney demolition, taking down a poorly constructed concrete chimney that has caused a serious damp problem in our house. But wait, that’s not all! We also have leaky guttering, detached rendering, rotten windows, and rainwater pouring into our caves. It’s like a DIY disaster movie!
Challenging Chimney Removal: Hand Tools to the Rescue!
Before we can even begin to repair the damage caused by this catastrophe, we have to face months of labor-intensive clearing. It’s going to be a long, grueling journey. The culprit seems to be cement. What genius thought it was a good idea to construct a chimney using cement on the shady side of granite house? It’s a moisture trap that never gets a chance to dry. Talk about a design flaw! Now we find ourselves in a race against time to save our beloved dwelling.
Cement & Granite: The Struggle To Remove Our Chimney
Now, let’s talk about taking down this towering 6-meter chimney. We’ve armed ourselves with SDS drills and trusty hand tools, prepared for battle. But let me tell you, 1970’s cement is no joke! It might as well be harder than the granite it’s clinging onto. This is certainly not a task for the faint of heart.
Chimney Demolition: Windows, Guttering, Floorboards, and Rendering
Once the demolition is complete, we face a whole new set of challenges. We need to replace windows, guttering, floorboards, and rendering. It’s going to be quite the makeover project. Hey, at least we’re getting some exercise, right?
But here’s the kicker – we have to finish all these repairs before winter rears its chilly head. So, grab a hard hat and join us on this race against time. Will we beat the clock and restore our home to its former glory? Only time will tell. Stay tuned!
Months of back-breaking work await us as we prepare to rid our surroundings of debris and battle the remnants of failed construction choices.
