Hi,

I am looking for some general pointers...and don't laugh if this sound's fairly stupid!

I knocked down a boiler house that had been attached to the garden wall, and where the boiler house used to meet the wall the cavity blocks are a bit chipped away.

I have tried knocking the old bricks that were perpendicular to the garden wall away with a sledge and lump hammer, but I manage to damage the garden wall too. It's a shared wall so I don't want to wreck the garden wall.

Any short cuts? Or just keep chipping away with a chisel and hammer, and then smooth it over with cement or something?
