Chimney Height Extension

With Design & Build Service

Our company offers a comprehensive solution for investors whose projects require chimney height extension of neighboring buildings — or the construction of new chimneys — due to the increased height of a new structure, all within a Design & Build framework. With over two decades of experience in chimney technology and 15 years of market leadership in chimney height extension, we have an outstanding portfolio of references to our name. We not only design and construct, but also manage the entire process of obtaining the necessary approvals — including heritage protection, condominium, resident, and regulatory permits. All our implementations are carried out exclusively with the full coordination of the handover process by the Fire Protection Authority’s chimney sweeping department.

Chimney Height Extension Design

Not just a requirement — but the key to a successful project!

Chimney Height Extension Construction

With more than two decades of experience!

PM360 Project Management

Every detail matters — we see the full 360 degrees!

A chimney height extension plan is not just a regulatory requirement — it is the key to a successful project!

During building permit procedures, the Government Office almost always requires chimney height extension or chimney reconstruction plans (in the case of attic conversions) for neighboring buildings, or designer’s declarations regarding the level of involvement.

The Kéményseprő-Műszaki Irányelvek (KiMI 2.1:2022.12.16) issued by the Belügyminisztérium Országos Katasztrófavédelmi Főigazgatóság set out explicit design obligations for determining the outlet position in the case of chimney height extensions.

The consent of neighboring condominiums is always required for chimney height extension works, as the investor is not the owner of the affected property. Obtaining such consents without approved design plans is almost impossible — therefore, a well-prepared plan greatly facilitates project progress. Our tasks also include coordinating with the Government Office, Heritage Protection Authority, and the Fire Protection Authority.

Our company prepares chimney height extension and renovation plans through our in-house designer, and all plans are approved by the authorized chimney sweeping service provider. This ensures that the technical content of the project fully complies with the relevant standards and regulations.

Our Design Packages

We offer several design packages to ensure the most cost-efficient alignment with the project’s current phase. Our packages can also be applied to the preparation of chimney reconstruction plans for affected buildings in cases of chimney height extension or attic conversion.

Basic

Recommended for clients who wish to assess the necessity of chimney height extension or need to visualize the chimneys of neighboring buildings as part of a building concept.

  • On-site survey (excluding roof inspection)
  • Simplified technical description
  • Technical consultation for interim design phases
  • Preliminary (interim) design plan

Business

Recommended for clients who primarily need plans for the building permit procedure. This package also provides valuable information for the building’s design — particularly for the layout of terraces.

  • On-site survey (excluding roof inspection)
  • Technical description
  • Designer coordination and technical consultation for interim design phases
  • Preliminary (interim) design plan
  • Permit plans
  • Plan approval in cooperation with the authorized chimney sweeping service provider

Pro

Recommended for clients who, beyond obtaining the necessary permits, wish to identify the most optimal technical solution for the chimney height extension and also want an estimate of the expected costs.

  • On-site survey (excluding roof inspection)
  • In-apartment survey
  • Technical description
  • Preliminary (interim) design plan
  • Designer coordination and technical consultation for interim design phases
  • Heritage protection consultation
  • Permit plans
  • Plan approval in cooperation with the authorized chimney sweeping service provider
  • Estimated budget

Platinum

Recommended for clients who want full insight into the entire process and wish to use the completed plans — together with an unpriced budget — for contractor tendering. Of course, we trust that they will also choose our company for the construction phase, as has been the case with all our partners who have designed with us so far.

  • On-site survey (excluding roof inspection)
  • In-apartment survey
  • Technical description
  • Preliminary (interim) design plan
  • Designer coordination and technical consultation for interim design phases
  • Heritage protection consultation
  • Permit plans
  • Plan approval in cooperation with the authorized chimney sweeping service provider
  • Estimated budget
  • Unpriced budget
  • As-built plans
  • Drónos felmérés

Dróntechnológiával támogatott épületfelmérés kéménymagasításhoz

A Kamin Group Kft. a DroneOne Kft.-vel kialakított, a kéménymagasítási feladatokhoz kapcsolódó drónos felmérésekre vonatkozó kizárólagos szakmai együttműködés keretében új, korszerű épületfelmérési szolgáltatással bővítette tevékenységét.

A technológia segítségével gyorsan és nagy pontossággal mérhetjük fel az épületek tetőszerkezetét, kéményeit, szellőzőit és egyéb tetőfelépítményeit, valamint a beruházás során kéménymagasítással érintett szomszédos épületek adottságait.

Kéménymagasítások tervezésénél a drónos felmérés különösen nagy előnyt jelent: pontosabb képet kapunk a környező épületek magassági viszonyairól és a meglévő kémények elhelyezkedéséről, így gyorsabban és megalapozottabban készíthetjük el a műszaki terveket.

Társasházak számára a szolgáltatás részletes, nagy felbontású képi dokumentációt biztosít a tetők, kémények, szellőzők és egyéb tetőfelépítmények látható állapotáról. Az így nyert információk segítséget nyújtanak a karbantartási, felújítási és beruházási döntések előkészítéséhez.

A dróntechnológia alkalmazásával a nehezen megközelíthető épületrészek is hatékonyabban, sok esetben állványozás és tetőre lépés nélkül vizsgálhatók.

A drónnal történő felméréskor sokkal pontosabban és hatékonyabban tudjuk a tervezést lebonyolítani.

Szolgáltatásunk részét képezik a felméréshez szükséges engedélyek beszerzése és dokumentálása is.

Platinum tervezői csomagunk esetében a csomag részét képezi a drónnal történő felmérés, de természetesen a szolgáltatás bármelyik másik tervezői csomagunkhoz pluszban is rendelhető!

Construction

In the field of chimney height extension, our 10-member project management team enables us to oversee the entire process and handle all necessary consultations — with authorities, heritage protection offices, condominium associations, and residents, even within general meetings — to ensure smooth execution. Our staff possess the professional expertise and experience required for the complete implementation of a chimney height extension project. Together with our permanent subcontractors, our construction team often reaches 30 people, allowing us to respond quickly to any issues that may arise.

1. Obtaining Permits

Since the investor cannot provide a work area on neighboring condominiums, acquiring condominium and resident consents is an essential part of all chimney height extension projects.

2. Optimal Technical Solutions

If a suitable chimney-related technical solution cannot be found, we explore alternative options such as electrical or other systems, which we also execute comprehensively.

3. Seamless Collaboration

Our company’s founder and managing director is also the president of the Kéményépítők Szakmai Szövetsége (Professional Association of Chimney Builders) and a regular speaker at condominium conferences. As a result, condominiums regard us as a trusted and credible source of professional information. This relationship — along with our two decades of experience — greatly supports the successful execution of our projects.

4. Legal Compliance

We ensure that the entire construction process is carried out in full compliance with all legal regulations. For the past 20 years, we have been represented by the Csetneki Law Office, with whom — together with the Kéményépítők Szakmai Szövetsége — we have prepared several legal and professional documents on chimney height extension, all available for download on our website.

All About Chimney Height Extension – Part I.

In May 2021, together with the Csetneki Law Office, we published the legal and technical guide “All About Chimney Height Extension.” This document is primarily intended to assist real estate developers, investors, general contractors, and designers in understanding the requirements that must be met to obtain the occupancy permit for a new building, as well as the key considerations related to the chimneys of surrounding buildings.
