“They came out the same day, found the problem straight away and had it fixed before the rain came back. Honest price and very tidy. Highly recommended.”

Chimney Repairs in Merseyside
Chimneys are one of the most exposed elements of any roof. Constant movement from thermal expansion and contraction, driven rainfall and freeze-thaw cycles take their toll on mortar joints, flaunching and lead flashings over time. Left unattended, chimney deterioration leads to water penetration, damp patches on chimney breasts and, in severe cases, structural movement.
We carry out all aspects of chimney repair and maintenance: pointing and repointing of the brickwork, renewing flaunching (the mortar bed securing the chimney pots), replacing and dressing lead flashings at the base of the stack, fitting lead soakers behind step flashings on slated roofs, replacing cracked or damaged pots and, where necessary, partial or full chimney stack rebuilds.
We always inspect the full chimney from base to pot before quoting, so we can identify every element that needs attention in a single visit rather than in stages.
For the full picture on repair types, warning signs, and the difference between a chimney repair and a chimney sweep, see our complete guide to chimney repairs.

Lead is the material of choice for chimney flashings. We cut, dress and seal to the correct Code and profile.
Structural assessment
We check the chimney stack for bulging, cracking or movement that may indicate deeper structural issues.
Mortar repointing
We match mortar colour and mix as closely as possible to the existing jointing for a consistent finish.
Pot replacement
We can replace broken pots, fit bird guards or cap off redundant flues safely and neatly.
