Chimney Repairs

Chimneys take the brunt of all weather conditions sitting at the highest point of your roof. Jl Roofing repairs crumbling mortar, damaged brickwork, and failing lead flashings around chimney stacks.

When You Need Chimney Repairs

Crumbling mortar or loose bricks visible on your chimney stack. Damp patches on walls surrounding your upstairs fireplace or chimney breast. Damaged or missing lead flashings where the chimney meets the roof tiles. A leaning or unstable chimney pot.

How We Do It

We inspect the chimney stack from scaffolding or roof access to assess stability and mortar condition. We rake out damaged mortar joints and repoint them with weather-resistant mixes. We replace damaged lead flashings and seal around the base to prevent water ingress. We cap or re-secure pots and cowls as needed before cleaning up.

What to Expect

Most chimney repointing and flashing repairs take between 1 to 2 days.
