"In addition to the potential combustible gas leak, the fireplace and its chimney breast do not appear to be forming an effective 'chimney' (sometimes called a flue) that would allow the combustion gases to safely escape to the outside air. The chimney will need to be unblocked or the fire will not work properly and the combustion gases will be a safety hazard for occupants..."
Birmingham has a number of properties built with this stone. It is a good match for a range of other limestones. Clipsham stone is found in walling and other masonry.
Homes in Birmingham are commonly found with interlocking clay tiles. The 'inter-locks' and 'weather bars' on Clay tiles offer good protection from water penetration, many of these tiles are old and prone to failure. Property surveys in Birmingham should look into any potential leaks as repair is a significant undertaking. Roofers often are unable to fix problems with these types of roof as the know how is more specialist. Should the HomeBuyer Reports in Heanor uncover any defects, we would recommend you speak to a local roofing contractor.
