Chimney Repairs & Pointing
The most exposed part of the house, and a common source of leaks.
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.

What usually goes wrong
Damp on the chimney breast
Water gets in through open joints, cracked flaunching or failed flashing.
Crumbling mortar joints
Once the joints open up, frost starts breaking the bricks.
Cracked flaunching round the pots
The mortar cap is what sheds water off the top of the stack.
