I have a chimney where the top stack has been removed and it now ends in the loft. My loft seems an ideal place to relocate some electrical stuff to but I need a network cable up there. Running one up the inside of the chimney from the ground floor seems the neatest way to do it but I'm buggered if I can get it up. House is victorian/edwardian.
I've drilled a hole in the top of the chimney where it was capped and dropped a weight on a string down. I suspect it is getting hung up around the first floor (fireplace has been removed there) but can't really tell.
I've tried an endoscope thing but I can't really tell what it's showing me/I can't really direct it. I've shone a torch up the chimney from the ground floor fireplace and I can't see any light at the top which I suspect isn't a great sign.
Any suggestions on the best way of doing this? I don't mind spending twenty quid or so on something that will resolve the problem but beyond that I'll probably revert to my original plan of putting stuff in the cupboard under the stairs. Cheers.
