Expert Chimney, Leadwork and Flashing Repairs
Chimneys and the lead around them are where roofs leak first. We repair, repoint and reflash chimneys across Hampshire, renew lead valleys and flashing, and waterproof every joint where the roof meets a wall.
Why Failed Lead and Mortar Are A Problem On Their Own
A chimney breaks up the run of a roof, and every joint around it relies on lead and mortar. When those fail, they cause problems of their own.
Cracked flashing
The lead flashing sealing the chimney to the roof splits and lifts over time, so rain runs straight down beside the brickwork.
Failing mortar
Cracked and missing mortar on a chimney lets water into the joints, where it soaks the stack and the roof below.
Worn lead valleys
The lead in valleys and around penetrations fatigues and splits, and each split is a direct route into the roof.
Damp on the chimney breast
Left alone, water tracks in around the chimney and shows up as damp and staining on the breast and ceilings inside.
What Proper Chimney and Leadwork Sets Up For Your Roof
Sealing the chimney, the valleys and the joints properly is what keeps water out at the very points a roof is most likely to fail.
Chimney repairs and repointing
Repair damaged stacks and repoint failing mortar to keep the chimney sound and weathertight.
Chimney removal
Safely remove an unused chimney and make the roof good where it stood.
Lead flashing repairs
Repair or renew the flashing that seals the chimney and roof joints against water.
Lead valley repairs
Repair and replace worn lead valleys before splits let water into the roof.
Leadwork replacement

Cowls, penetrations and waterproofing
Fit chimney cowls, seal around roof penetrations and waterproof where the roof meets walls.
How We Repair Chimneys, Leadwork and Flashing

We inspect the chimney, flashing and leadwork, find the cause of the leak and advise honestly on what needs doing.
Free written quotation

Strip the failed work
We remove the cracked flashing, worn lead or failing mortar around the affected area.
Repair the structure
We repoint the stack and make good any brickwork or roof disturbed by the leak.
Fit new leadwork
