dear all, i am going to install a boliler in a flat, it is 2nd floor which is top floor, however it looks i have to use a vertical flue because the cupboard is in the middle of the flat, shall i find a roofer to help me? or hire a scaffolding? never worked on high level before, any suggestions? cheers,
 
use a roofer and scaffold tower to find out how to do it or you'll be getting call backs for leaks
 
It is pretty easy to do but if you have never worked on a roof before get a roofer in to do it for your own safety.
It will cost you £100 - £140.
 
I always use a roofer as well, I don't like working on roofs at all.
 
On a 2nd floor flat I would get a roofer to do it.

I always do my own vertical flues unless I think it is not safe to do so.
if you've never done one before, fit the flue as far as you can go, push a tile up where you want to terminate, roofer fits v/flue and you can fit to it clips etc before he leaves.
 
what is the best way to install a vertical flue? Upright? sorry!
