Little Shelford is a quiet, largely unspoilt village with a tight cluster of older properties — the kind of place where a poorly rebuilt chimney stands out and where doing it right the first time matters.
The village sits just off the A1301 south of Cambridge, with older farmhouses, flint-and-brick cottages and a handful of Victorian properties making up much of the older housing stock. Stacks on these buildings were often built to serve multiple fireplaces and can be substantial — any movement or cracking should be taken seriously rather than patched over.
We always carry out a full survey before quoting on chimney work in Little Shelford, checking stack alignment, the condition of the haunching and flaunching at the top, and whether the flashing has lifted at the lead trays. A proper rebuild here means the stack is sound from base to pot, not just presentable from the road.
