Chimney surveys
The Turner Baker surveys team have a wide range of investigative tools that allow us to identify problems and accurately assess the condition of a flue or chimney. Our clients can then renovate or repair using appropriate and cost-effective solutions.
These surveys are non-invasive and are carried out with a minimum amount of disruption and inconvenience by our team of trained surveyors. We are one of the leading providers of GPR Surveys in London.
Survey findings are reviewed by qualified engineers with results provided as a camera recording along with a written report or annotated drawing. The format of the results provided will depend upon the survey that you have commissioned.
Typically, these are the reasons for commissioning a survey:

– Is it possible to identify any water entry points around a chimney stack?
– What runs within this wall? (flues, RSJ’s etc.)
– Can I remove this wall without affecting other rooms in the building?
– Could this wall be used to channel services throughout the building?
– In which direction does the flue run through the property from the fireplace?
