Materials are always included in the quote. - Chimney repairs: Price on request - Quotes reflect whether the stack requires minor repointing, flashing replacement or extensive masonry rebuilding. - Access requirements, such as scaffolding or specific roof ladders, factor into the quotation. - All required building materials, mortar, lead and replacement bricks are included in the price. ## Chimney repairs in Chapel St Leonards A damaged chimney stack exposes your property to weathering where masonry meets the roof line. We repair brickwork, repoint joints, rebuild loose stacks and attend to damaged lead flashing. ### Repointing chimney mortar Weathered mortar joints between chimney courses allow damp to seep into brickwork. Raking out crumbling mortar and repointing the stack restores joint strength, preventing water ingress and keeping individual courses stable. ### Rebuilding damaged brick stacks When frost or movement has cracked chimney bricks or caused courses to loosen, repointing alone will not fix the structural issue. We take down compromised masonry safely and rebuild the chimney stack using suitable bricks and mortar. ### Chimney lead flashing maintenance The junction between your chimney stack and roof slates or tiles relies on stepped lead flashing. Split, lifted or missing lead lets rainwater run straight into roof timbers and ceilings, which requires resetting or replacing the flashing. ### Chimney pot and flaunching repairs The mortar crown at the top of the stack, known as flaunching, secures chimney pots in place. Cracked flaunching allows moisture inside the flue or stack, so we repair or renew the mortar bed to keep pots firmly seated. ## Chimney work across Chapel St Leonards and PE24 Properties in Chapel St Leonards, from bungalows along Roman Bank to homes around Hogsthorpe, face persistent coastal air and rain. We assess each chimney stack to resolve loose masonry and leaking flashing. ### Coastal weather and chimney masonry Chapel St Leonards sits directly on the coastline, where driving rain and salt air test external mortar. We evaluate mortar erosion across chimney stacks on older brick homes and newer builds around Wolla Bank and Chapel Point. ### Flashing around pitched roofs Chimneys on homes throughout the PE24 area join various roof coverings, including slate and concrete tile slopes. We check that stepped flashing, back gutters and aprons seal cleanly against the surrounding roof tiles. ### Outlying properties and village stacks From Roman Bank out towards Hogsthorpe and Chapel Six Marshes, residential chimney stacks vary from compact single flues to broad twin-pot structures. We attend to brickwork repairs and stack rebuilding suited to each building. ## What happens during a chimney repair inspection Every chimney repair begins with an on-site look at the stack, pot security and surrounding flashing. We determine the exact work needed to stop leaks and restore stability. ### Assessing the brickwork and mortar We examine the physical state of the stack, noting loose masonry, cracked bricks, spalling faces and missing joint mortar. This reveals whether repointing is sufficient or partial rebuilding is required. ### Checking the roof junction Water ingress near a chimney often stems from failed leadwork rather than the brick stack itself. We inspect lead aprons, step flashings and adjoining slates or tiles to confirm the roof seal is watertight. ### Planning safe roof access Reaching chimney stacks requires appropriate ladders, scaffold access or working platforms depending on property height and roof pitch. We confirm all access requirements before any masonry or leadwork starts. ## Why choose New Look Building Services We quote each property on its individual requirements, include all materials up front, and carry public liability insurance for your protection.

Yes, we handle both chimney rebuilding and repairs. The amount of rebuilding depends on how deteriorated the masonry is, from replacing a few loose courses to taking down and rebuilding the complete stack. ### Can chimney pointing be repaired on its own? Where the bricks and overall structure remain solid, repointing deteriorated mortar joints can resolve the problem. We assess the stack first to ensure the underlying brickwork is structurally sound before repointing. ### Could a chimney leak be caused by faulty flashing? Yes, damaged or improperly installed lead flashing is a common cause of leaks around a chimney. The masonry and surrounding roof flashing work together, so we inspect both to find the exact point of water entry. ### Is chimney sweeping included in your service? No, our service focuses on structural building and roofing repairs. Chimney sweeping, flue lining and heating appliance servicing are separate trades and are excluded from our repair work. ### Can you carry out chimney repairs during a roof replacement? Yes, chimney repairs and reroofing can be scheduled together. We quote each element of the job clearly so you know exactly what is involved for both the stack and the roof covering. ### Are materials included in the chimney repair quote? Yes, all building materials needed for the chimney repair, such as replacement bricks, mortar, lead and flaunching, are included in the quotation provided for your property. ## Chimney services across the Chapel St Leonards district Our chimney repair and rebuilding work extends across Chapel St Leonards and the PE24 area, encompassing Wolla Bank, Chapel Point, Roman Bank, Hogsthorpe and Chapel Six Marshes.
