Chimney Removal in Dún Laoghaire

When a Stack Has Stopped Earning Its Place on the Roof

Looking for chimney removal in Dún Laoghaire? All Fix Roofing carries out chimney removal work across Dún Laoghaire and the rest of County Dublin, from the first look at the roof to clearing up at the end. Every job starts with a visit and a written quote, so you know what is involved before anything is agreed.

If you no longer burn fuel and the stack above your roof is cracked, leaning or letting in water, taking it down can make more sense than paying to repair it again. We remove the brickwork course by course, either to just above the roof line so it can be capped, or to below roof level so the roof covering runs straight over where it stood.

Removing the stack below the roof leaves a clean, unbroken slope with nothing left to maintain. Stopping just above the roof line is quicker and keeps the job smaller. Either way the flue below is capped and ventilated, so the old chimney breast inside stays dry and does not sweat.

This service covers the stack above the roof only. Taking a chimney breast out inside the house is a separate structural job that we do not include here. On terraces where one stack serves two houses, your neighbours need to agree before anything comes down, and we can explain to them what we plan to do.

Signs To Look For

When to Call About Chimney Removal in Dún Laoghaire

What people tend to notice first, from the garden, the loft or the ceiling below.

A Stack You No Longer Use

Gas or electric heating has replaced the open fire, and the chimney now only costs money in upkeep without doing anything for the house.

Leaning or Badly Cracked Brickwork

When a stack is out of plumb or split through, rebuilding it may cost more than removing it and closing the roof over.

Leaks That Keep Coming Back

Damp keeps returning around the chimney breast despite earlier repairs, and you would rather remove the source than keep patching it.

Re-Roofing the House

A full re-roof is a natural moment to take out an unused stack, since the slates or tiles can then run straight across where it stood.

How It Works

How Your Chimney Removal Job in Dún Laoghaire Runs

Step 01

Agree the Extent

We look at the stack, the roof and the flue, confirm whether neighbours share it, and agree with you whether it stops above or below the roof line.

Step 02

Take the Stack Down

Pots come off first, then the brickwork is taken down by hand a course at a time, with rubble lowered in bags rather than dropped.

Step 03

Cap & Vent the Flue

The open flue is sealed with a vented cap so rain stays out while air still moves through the old chimney, keeping the breast inside dry.

Step 04

Close the Roof

Where the stack went below roof level, we add timbers, felt or membrane, battens and matching slates or tiles so the roof slope reads as one.

Pricing

What Affects Your Chimney Removal Quote in Dún Laoghaire?

No two roofs in Dún Laoghaire are quite the same, so we price after seeing yours. Below are the four factors that move the figure on your written quote most for this job.

087 477 9677
Factor 01

Height & Size of the Stack

A tall stack with several pots involves more brickwork to take down and more rubble to clear than a short single-flue stack.

Factor 02

Above or Below the Roof Line

Taking the stack below roof level means rebuilding that part of the roof, which adds timber, underlay and roofing materials to the job.

Factor 03

Matching the Roof Covering

Natural slate on an older terrace can take longer to source and match than a standard concrete tile on a newer house.

Factor 04

Access & Site Clearance

Narrow lanes, rear-only access or a stack above a conservatory affect how scaffolding goes up and how rubble is brought down and taken away.

FAQs

Your Chimney Removal Questions, Answered for Dún Laoghaire

Do you carry out chimney removal work in Dún Laoghaire?

Yes. Dún Laoghaire is one of the areas we cover in County Dublin. Call 087 477 9677 or send the quote form with your Eircode, and we will arrange a time to look at the roof and give you a written quote.

Which areas near Dún Laoghaire do you cover?

As well as Dún Laoghaire, we cover nearby Dublin, Tallaght and Clondalkin, plus the other towns listed on our contact page, across County Dublin, County Kildare and County Meath. If you are not sure whether we reach you, ring and ask.

Is it worth removing a chimney I no longer use?

Often it is, especially if the stack is cracked, leaning or leaking. An unused stack still needs its pointing, flashings and pots kept in order, so removing it takes that upkeep away for good. If the stack is sound and dry, leaving it in place can be the cheaper choice, and we will tell you so when we see it.

Can you remove the chimney breast inside the house too?

No. Removing a chimney breast from inside a room is a structural job that changes how the walls and floors carry weight, and it is not part of this service. Our work covers the stack above the roof, closing up the roof covering and capping the flue so the remaining breast stays dry and ventilated.

What if the chimney is shared with my neighbour?

On terraced and semi-detached houses one stack often serves both homes. In that case your neighbours need to agree before any of it comes down, since it affects their flue and roof too. We can explain what is involved and price the work so both households have the same information to decide on.

How long does it take to remove a chimney stack?

Taking a stack down to the roof line is usually a short job once scaffolding is in place. Going below roof level takes longer because that section of roof is rebuilt and covered again to match. Weather plays its part too, because an opened-up section of roof is only left exposed when the forecast allows. Your quote gives a realistic timescale.

How do I arrange a quote for chimney removal?

Ring us, or put your Eircode into the quote form with a line about the stack and whether a neighbour shares it. We arrange to see the chimney and the roof around it, then give you a written quote covering removal, capping and making good, with each option set out if you are deciding between them.
