Chimney Repairs

Chimneys take the brunt of wind, rain, and frost, making them a common source of roof leaks. Our specialists handle chimney re-pointing, flaunching, brickwork repairs, and lead flashing renewal.

When You Need Chimney Repairs

Crumbled or missing mortar joints between bricks on your chimney stack. Damp patches appearing on walls directly surrounding your chimney breast indoors. Loose or leaning chimney pots wobbling during high winds. Rusting or damaged lead flashings where the chimney meets the roof tiles.

How We Do It

We inspect the stack stability, brick condition, and mortar integrity from scaffold access. We rake out damaged mortar joints and replace spalling bricks where necessary. We re-point the brickwork using durable, weather-resistant mortar mixes. We renew lead flashings and repair chimney flaunching to secure the pots.

What to Expect

Most chimney repairs and re-pointing projects are completed within 1 to 2 days.
