Our chimney repair services

We carry out all aspects of chimney repair and restoration across Surrey — from straightforward repointing jobs to full stack rebuilds. We also offer a chimney removal service. 


Every repair is carried out from scaffold or specialist access equipment, ensuring safe, thorough work at every level.



Our chimney repair services

Chimney repointing

Raking out and replacing deteriorating mortar joints across the chimney stack to stop water penetration and prevent further erosion.

Flashing repair & replacement

Re-dressing, resealing, or fully replacing lead and aluminium flashing where it meets the roof — the most common source of chimney-related leaks.

Chimney pot replacement

Removing cracked or unstable pots and re-bedding new ones securely, including fitting cowls or caps to prevent water and bird ingress.

Stack rebuilding

Partial or full chimney stack rebuilds where structural deterioration or storm damage has gone beyond what repointing alone can address.

Chimney waterproofing

Applying breathable water repellent treatments to porous brickwork, significantly reducing water absorption without trapping moisture inside.

Chimney capping & sealing

Professionally capping redundant or unused chimney stacks to prevent water ingress, while maintaining adequate ventilation to avoid damp.

Before scaffold comes down, a final inspection is carried out. You receive a written report and photographs of the completed work — useful for insurance, conveyancing, or your own records.

How often should a chimney be inspected?

Whether you regularly use or even if you no longer use your fireplace, chimneys should be inspected every 3–5 years — or after any significant storm. Unused stacks are particularly vulnerable to water damage as they lose the drying effect of regular use. We recommend combining a chimney inspection with any roof repair or cleaning visit to make the most of scaffold access.
