The chimney is exposed on every side, so small failures can let in a lot of water.
Rain, frost and wind all wear down mortar, flashing and flaunching. We inspect the full chimney area and roof junction so the repair addresses the cause, not just the visible damp patch.

Chimney work we handle
Lead flashing repair and replacement
Failed leadwork is a common leak source. We repair or replace flashing so water is directed away from the roof junction.
Pointing and mortar repairs
Open joints and cracked mortar allow water into the chimney structure. Repointing helps restore weatherproofing.
Cowls, caps and flaunching
We fit caps and cowls to reduce rain entry and help protect unused or active chimney pots.
