Chimney Works and Leadwork
Chimneys and roof junctions take the brunt of British weather. We provide expert chimney repointing, stack rebuilding, lead flashing, and valley repairs to keep vulnerable roof joints watertight.
When You Need Chimney and Leadwork
Mortar is missing between the bricks of your chimney stack, leaving loose bricks. Water is leaking into your loft space directly around the base of the chimney stack. Lead flashings around your chimney, dormers, or roof valleys have pulled away or cracked. The chimney pot is leaning, cracked, or the cement flaunching has broken apart.
How We Do It
We examine the chimney stack, brickwork integrity, and all lead flashings from scaffolding. We rake out damaged mortar joints and repoint using weather-resistant sand and cement mix. We replace deteriorated lead flashings, step flashings, and valley linings with code-compliant rolled lead. We rebuild damaged flaunching around pots and ensure all weather seals are secure.
What to Expect
Chimney repointing and lead flashing repairs typically take 1 to 3 days depending on scaffolding requirements and weather.
