Chimney repointing and brickwork repairs

Over time, mortar erodes and weakens the brickwork. Repointing restores the strength and appearance of your chimney and protects your property from water getting in and from structural problems.

We also render and repair chimneys, so the finished stack is sound and weatherproof.

Chimney lead flashing

The lead flashing where a chimney meets the roof protects one of the most vulnerable parts of your home. When it wears or cracks, water can find its way in.

We repair and replace chimney flashing with skilled leadwork, so the join between chimney and roof stays watertight.
