Chimney & Leadwork

Chimney stacks and lead flashings are vulnerable points where water can easily penetrate your roof. We provide expert repointing, leadwork repairs, and chimney maintenance across Brixton.

When You Need Chimney & Leadwork

Damp patches on walls surrounding your upstairs chimney breast. Crumbling mortar joints or loose bricks on your chimney stack. Peeling or cracked lead flashing where the roof meets the chimney or wall. Debris falling into your fireplace or wood burner from above.

How We Do It

Inspect the chimney stack and lead flashings for cracks and deterioration. Rake out damaged mortar joints and repoint brickwork securely. Replace damaged lead flashings with properly dressed, durable lead sheeting. Ensure cowls and pots are secure to prevent weather ingress.

What to Expect

Most chimney repointing and lead flashing repairs take between 1 and 2 days depending on access and weather conditions.
