Chimney Repairs in London

Chimneys are exposed roof features with several potential points of deterioration. We discuss chimney repairs in London, including repointing, pots and the flashings where the stack meets the covering.

Chimney Repairs — roofing detail
Carefully considered roof work, from assessment to finish.

Understanding the work

Assess the stack and the roof around it

Water near a chimney can be associated with its masonry, the leadwork or surrounding roof details. Loose or visibly damaged components also need proper assessment. We discuss the condition, access and the proposed repair before work is agreed. Where the chimney has structural concerns or a proposed alteration changes how it is supported, an appropriate professional assessment may be needed.

Useful information

Before you arrange the work

Send the property address, a description of the roof and any existing reports. Photos from a safe position can help explain the issue. Let us know if access is managed by an agent or shared with other occupiers.

The extent of the work, materials and access arrangements affect the estimate. We discuss these before the scope is agreed.

Your questions

Is a leak beside a chimney always a flashing problem?

No. Flashings are one possible cause, but the masonry, flaunching and adjoining covering may also need attention. Describe the symptoms and any previous work so the inspection can consider the relevant details.
