Chimney Removal Tips for Shanksville, PA
How does the chimney removal process work?
Generally speaking, the chimney removal process can be done one brick at a time with a hammer and chisel, or more quickly with a mini-jack or impact hammer.
- Partial Chimney Removal: The partial chimney removal process is as simple as removing the chimney stack—the part of the chimney above the roof—until it is flush with the roof. From there, the hole is patched up to resemble the roof as much as possible.
- Complete Chimney Removal: The complete chimney removal process includes removing the entire chimney stack as well as the chimney breast—the part of the chimney visible within the home. Complete chimney removal results in more than just a hole in your roof that needs to be patched. You may also have a hole in the floor or in the wall that needs to be patched, too.
