INTERNAL CHIMNEY STACK CRUMBLING All manner of questions and solutions to problems and issues surrounding the subject of brickwork, blockwork and stonework

[barneyrubble1971]

Hi can anyone please help me. My bricks in my chimney stack are turning into dust and are so soft you can dig into them with your finger. Everytime i go up there theres a pile of brick dust on the floor. Can i put a stabalising solution on them and then just render over the top?? And if so whats the best type of solution to use. Thanks for any help you can give.. :D
