I've had a chimney breast removed on 2 floors of my house by a builder, we've had to leave the chimney stack in place as it's a conservation area so have supported the stack with RSJs. The builder hasn't patched up the ceiling yet so when I look up I can see daylight through both chimney pots. What is normal practice after removing chimney breasts, should I ask the builder to put cowls on the chimney to stop the rain dropping in?
