Chimney repointing
Over time, the mortar between chimney bricks can deteriorate due to rain, frost and changing weather conditions.
Chimney repointing involves removing damaged mortar and replacing it with new mortar to help protect the brickwork.
Repointing may be required if you notice:
- Cracked mortar
- Loose or missing mortar
- Gaps between bricks
- Crumbling joints
- Water entering around the chimney
Repairing damaged pointing early can help prevent further deterioration.
Chimney leadwork
Lead flashing around a chimney helps prevent water from entering the roof where the chimney meets the roofing materials.
Damaged or poorly maintained leadwork can result in roof leaks and damp inside the property.
We can:
- Repair damaged lead flashing
- Replace old leadwork
- Install new flashing
- Repair lead around chimney junctions
- Check surrounding roofing materials
We inspect the area carefully to identify where water may be entering.
Chimney repairs
Chimneys can suffer damage from weather, age and movement of the building.
We can repair problems including:
- Cracked brickwork
- Loose bricks
- Damaged mortar
- Damaged chimney pots
- Deteriorated pointing
- Damaged lead flashing
- Water ingress
Where necessary, we can also repair the surrounding roof area.
Chimney removal
If a chimney is no longer required, chimney removal may be an option depending on the property and structure.
We can discuss the removal of:
- Chimney stacks
- Chimney pots
- Unused chimney sections
Before removing a chimney, the structure must be assessed to determine the appropriate method and any necessary support.
Once the chimney has been removed, we can also carry out the required roofing work to close and weatherproof the area.
Chimney capping
Unused chimneys can sometimes require suitable capping or ventilation to help prevent rainwater and debris from entering while allowing appropriate ventilation.
We can inspect an unused chimney and discuss suitable options depending on the property.
Chimney and roof leak repairs
A chimney is one of the areas where roof leaks commonly occur.
Water can enter through:
- Damaged lead flashing
- Cracked mortar
- Damaged brickwork
- Failed sealants
- Problems around the chimney base
- Damaged roof tiles or slates
If you have noticed damp or water marks around a chimney, we can inspect both the chimney and surrounding roof to identify the likely cause.
Chimney maintenance
Regular inspections can help identify problems before they become more serious.
We recommend checking for:
- Cracked brickwork
- Loose bricks
- Damaged mortar
- Missing chimney pots
- Damaged leadwork
- Signs of water ingress
If you notice any changes to your chimney, contact us for an inspection.
