Expert Chimney Repair Services

We understand that chimney problems can escalate quickly, potentially causing water damage, structural issues, or safety hazards. That’s why we offer prompt, professional chimney repair services to homeowners throughout Ascot, Bracknell, Windsor, Wokingham, and surrounding areas.
With years of experience in the roofing industry, our qualified technicians have the expertise to diagnose and repair any chimney issue efficiently. We use only high-quality materials and proven techniques to ensure lasting repairs that protect your property investment.
Common Chimney Problems We Repair
Cracked or Damaged Chimney Crown: The chimney crown protects the top of your chimney from weather damage. When cracks develop, water can penetrate and cause significant structural damage. Our team expertly repairs or replaces damaged chimney crowns using weather-resistant materials.
Deteriorating Mortar Joints: Over time, mortar between bricks can deteriorate due to weather exposure. This compromises the chimney’s structural integrity and allows water penetration. We provide professional repointing services to restore your chimney’s strength and waterproofing.
Damaged Flashing: Chimney flashing creates a watertight seal where the chimney meets the roof. When flashing fails, water can leak into your home, causing ceiling damage and rot. Our experts install new flashing using premium lead or rubber materials for long-lasting protection.
Loose or Missing Chimney Pots: Chimney pots improve draft and prevent downdrafts whilst protecting the flue from weather damage. We secure loose pots and replace missing ones to ensure proper chimney function and prevent weather damage.
Chimney Repointing Services
Chimney repointing is one of our most requested services, and for good reason. When mortar joints deteriorate, your entire chimney structure becomes vulnerable to weather damage and structural failure. Our chimney repointing process involves carefully removing old, damaged mortar and replacing it with high-quality, weather-resistant mortar that matches your existing brickwork.
We use traditional lime mortar where appropriate for older properties, ensuring compatibility with existing materials whilst providing superior weather resistance. For modern chimneys, we utilise advanced mortar compounds that offer enhanced durability and weather protection.
Flaunching Chimney Services
Flaunching provides crucial weather protection around the base of chimney pots and helps direct water away from vulnerable areas. When flaunching cracks or deteriorates, water can penetrate and cause expensive damage to your chimney structure and roof timbers.
Our flaunching chimney repair service includes removing old, damaged flaunching and installing new weatherproof flaunching using high-quality mortar. We ensure proper slopes and drainage to prevent water accumulation whilst creating a neat, professional finish that enhances your property’s appearance.
Emergency Chimney Repairs
Chimney damage doesn’t wait for convenient times. Storm damage, sudden structural failure, or weather-related issues can create urgent safety hazards that require immediate attention. We provide emergency chimney repair services across our coverage areas, responding quickly to protect your property from further damage.
Our emergency services include temporary weatherproofing, structural stabilisation, and urgent repairs to prevent water ingress or structural collapse. We carry emergency materials and equipment to provide immediate solutions whilst planning comprehensive permanent repairs.
