    Why's your downpipe 120mm out of plum with the existing 'separation' between you and your neighbours?
    Are you after a quote for just the front of the house?

    With regards to the adjacent chimney; i would also say that the one on the left is approximately 30/40mm out of plum.

    'gobbo pulling it over'? ???
    I'm not bothered whether or not it is your house. Just wondered why the difference in lines? Either the downpipe is out of plum, or the line of 'ended brick pointing'. My money was on the downpipe..... Mind you, i've had a few tonigt so the ol' vision could be playing up
