Chimney repairs and leadwork across Lancashire & Yorkshire

Chimney repairs that stop the leak properly

Chimneys are exposed to driving rain, frost and movement. We investigate the actual entry point before recommending work, whether that means repointing, renewing leadwork, rebuilding defective sections or improving the weathering around the stack.

Clear advice before work starts

Send photographs of the chimney from the ground, inside the affected room and from the roof if safe. We can often identify the likely issue before arranging a visit and will explain whether a repair or rebuild is justified.

Common questions

How do I know if the chimney is causing damp?

Damp around a chimney breast, staining in the loft or water appearing after wind-driven rain can all point to failed flashing, pointing or weathering. Photographs help us narrow it down.

Do you repair leadwork as well as chimneys?

Yes. We carry out lead flashing, soakers, aprons, back gutters and related roof repairs as part of a complete weatherproofing solution.
