Clear advice first
Chimneys face weather from every direction.
Mortar, brickwork, pots, flaunching and flashings can each create a route for water or loose material. We inspect the visible defects and roof junction so the quotation reflects the work actually needed.
Chimney and leadwork defects
- ✓Loose, cracked or missing pointing
- ✓Damaged lead flashings or soakers
- ✓Leaks around the chimney breast
- ✓Weathered flaunching around chimney pots
- ✓Loose masonry or signs of frost damage
- ✓Failed leadwork at walls, valleys and roof junctions
Repair the vulnerable details
01
Inspect from roof level where required
Safe access helps distinguish flashing defects from masonry, pot or roof-covering issues.
02
Agree the repair scope
We explain whether repointing, leadwork, local rebuilding or another measured repair is appropriate.
03
Weatherproof the junction
The completed details are designed to shed water correctly into the roof covering.
