Most chimney leaks come from failing lead flashing, worn mortar, cracked flaunching, or slipped tiles around the stack. We inspect every weak point and repair the true cause so the leak doesn’t keep coming back.

Many stacks only need repointing and new flashing. If bricks are spalling, the stack is unstable, or damage is widespread, a partial or full rebuild may be safer and more cost-effective long-term. We’ll advise honestly.

Yes. If the chimney isn’t in use, we can cap it, fit a ventilated cowl, or reduce/remove it where appropriate. This helps prevent water ingress, improves roof integrity, and reduces ongoing maintenance needs.
