Chimney Repairs in 7 Fountains Crescent
Chimuys take the brunt of North East weather, leaving lead flashings and mortar joints vulnerable over time. We carry out safe chimney repairs, repointing, and leadwork to stop leaks right at the stack.
When You Need Chimney Repairs
Damp patches appearing on bedroom walls surrounding your chimney breast. Cracked or missing mortar pointing between brickwork on the chimney stack. Loose or rattling chimney pots shifting during high winds. Worn or damaged lead flashings allowing water to track inside your roof space.
How We Do It
We inspect the chimney stack from roof level to assess brickwork, flaunching, and leadwork. We rake out damaged mortar joints and carefully repoint the stack using durable mortar mix. We renew worn lead flashings and step flashings to create a waterproof barrier against the roof. We secure chimney pots and ensure the structural stability of the entire stack.
What to Expect
Most chimney repairs and repointing jobs are completed within 1 to 2 days, depending on scaffolding requirements.
