Chimney Repairs & Pointing

The most exposed part of the house, and a common source of leaks.

Chimney Repairs & Pointing

Chimney Repairs & Pointing across the South East


A chimney stands above the roofline taking the full force of the weather. Mortar washes out of the joints, flaunching cracks around the pots, and the flashing where the stack meets the roof lets go.

We repoint and restore chimney brickwork, renew flaunching, and sort the pots, cowls and lead flashing so water stays out of the stack and the rooms below.
