Do You Need Chimney Removal?
There are several reasons why you may need to consider removing the chimney in your home. If your property was built before 1940 it is highly likely that you’ll need to look at re-pointing and re-flaunching the chimney. Pointing refers to the ‘stuff’ between the bricks and flaunching is the sloped cement at the base.
The mortar for both perishes over time as the rain and weather hits it, so it will need raking out and a new mortar added.
When a chimney is no longer in use however, it’s often cheaper in the long run to remove it entirely. Nowadays more and more homes are moving away from open fires as we upgrade to more modern heating systems.

This is a truly great family business
"I cannot recommend this company highly enough. From Lesley when I phoned to explain my problems, John her husband when he came to take a look & quote me, finally Gary the son and lads who carried out the work, this is a truly great family business. On time, friendly & courteous, kept me informed of any issues & carried out the work to a high standard. All tidy on completion - what more could a customer want. Found my roofing & guttering company & will certainly use again."

John and his team always do a brilliant job
"I have already used Atlas Roofing several times to carry out work on my house. In the past, they replaced a couple of flat roofs, attached snow guards to gutters and did work on a chimney. Most recently, they replaced a ground floor roof. John and his team always do a brilliant job. They are professional, courteous, friendly and tidy. Their customer service is great too. I would highly recommend them."

The job went like clockwork
"John had previously done a great job re-roofing my parent's house so gave him a call to remove our chimney stack. John took a look, explained everything clearly and gave a detailed quote. All very professional. The job went like clockwork. Skip delivered and work done bang on time. The Guys were very polite and explained the options of tiles and did a very neat job. Could not have asked for more. Very happy customer and would highly recommend. Thanks"
Customer in Greater London
They were always focused and professional
"I had used Atlas roofing previously to replace a leaking flat roof. I was impressed with the work carried out and so was not too concerned when the time came for them to renew the main roof. The team worked extremely well. They were always focused and professional. All four of them were approachable and friendly. A lot of tradesmen tend to talk down to women but at no point did I feel patronized by any of the team. The roof looks good and I will use the company again."

What are the benefits of adding a new roof to my property?
A new roof offers a range of long-term benefits for homeowners. It can significantly improve the appearance of your property, giving it a clean, modern finish that enhances kerb appeal. Upgrading your roof can also increase the overall value of your home, making it more attractive to potential buyers.
Modern roofing systems are designed to provide better insulation, helping to reduce heat loss and improve energy efficiency throughout the property. In addition, a new roof offers stronger protection against the elements, helping to prevent leaks, damp issues, and structural damage. Investing in a replacement roof is a proactive way to safeguard your home and reduce the risk of costly repairs in the future.

How much does a new roof typically cost?
The cost of a new roof can vary depending on several factors, including the size of the property, the roofing materials selected, and the complexity of the roof structure. As a general guide, most new roof installations in Surrey fall within a broad price range, but larger roofs, premium materials, or additional work can increase the overall cost.
Key factors that influence pricing include the total roof area, the style and pitch of the roof, the materials used (such as slate, tile, or flat roofing systems), and any additional requirements like insulation upgrades, skylights, or chimney work. Labour costs and access requirements can also affect the final figure.
Atlas Roofing Construction provides free, no-obligation quotations, with a clear breakdown of costs so you know exactly what is included before any work starts.
When should you consider replacing your roof?
A roof replacement is often necessary when repairs are no longer sufficient to protect your property. Common signs include an ageing roof nearing the end of its expected lifespan, recurring leaks, damaged or missing tiles, and visible deterioration across large areas of the roof. Structural warning signs, such as a sagging roofline, can also indicate more serious underlying issues that require full replacement.
If you’re unsure about the condition of your roof, Atlas Roofing Construction can carry out a professional assessment and provide honest advice on whether repair or replacement is the best option.
