Two videos of the Chimney showing the four sides, and one video of the flat roof.
- The Chimney needs stripping, then stabilising with breathable primer, then painting with breathable exterior paint
- The flat roof is 2m wide at the max, and 4.2m long. This needs removing, some boards at the end replacing, and then re-covering

Questions
- Should we use a breathable stabilising solution to bind the crumbly mortar?
- What else should we do to prepare the surface?
- How long should we wait for the surface to dry before beginning?
- How much of the pre-existing paint should be removed?

I took these before I went ahead and scraped off as much loose material as possible. The cap of the chimney looks intact which is good.
