Property-specific assessment and quotation. New Look repairs and rebuilds chimneys in Skegness, assessing brickwork, mortar joints, flashings and the surrounding roof before agreeing the required work. ## How chimney work is quoted Price depends on the stack condition, height, access, amount of masonry and any roof-junction work required. New Look quotes after those elements have been considered for the property. - Chimney repairs: Price on request - Materials for the stated chimney work are included in the agreed quotation. - Sweeping, flue lining, appliance servicing and a complete reroof are outside this service unless separately arranged with the appropriate provider. ## Chimney repair and rebuilding in Skegness New Look Building Services works on existing chimney stacks, including brickwork, mortar joints and the flashing where the stack meets the roof. The condition determines whether repair, pointing or rebuilding is discussed. ### Mortar and pointing Weathered joints can be considered as a pointing job when the bricks and stack remain suitable. The extent, access and relationship with the roof covering need to be identified before the masonry work is defined. ### Damaged chimney brickwork Spalled, cracked or loose bricks may require local replacement or a wider section to be rebuilt. Photographs help show the visible faces, while the actual stability and concealed condition cannot be confirmed from an image alone. ### Flashing at the roof junction The metalwork around the chimney is part of the weathered connection with the roof. A leak beside a stack may concern flashing, masonry, the adjoining covering or more than one of those elements. ### Rebuilding an existing stack Francis has confirmed that chimney rebuilding is work he accepts. The quotation should state how much of the existing stack is involved and whether connected roof repairs form part of the same proposal. ## Chimneys within Skegness’s varied roofscape Older central buildings and later residential properties can carry very different stacks. Local history provides context, while each chimney needs its own description and assessment. ### Victorian growth and older rooflines Skegness Town Council records extensive development after the railway arrived in 1873. Chimneys on older properties can have later repairs or alterations, so their present brickwork and flashing matter more than an assumed construction date. ### Residential streets around the town Winthorpe, Seathorne and Seacroft include a range of houses and bungalows. Stack height, roof pitch, boundaries and nearby structures can change how chimney masonry is reached and which faces can be seen. ### Commercial and mixed-use properties Lumley Road, High Street and Roman Bank form important commercial parts of Skegness. A chimney above occupied premises may require a different access conversation from one on a detached home. ## Preparing a chimney enquiry Good photographs and a description of the symptom help separate masonry work from a roof-covering or rainwater problem before a quotation visit is arranged. ### Photograph the whole stack Where it can be done safely from the ground or another lawful position, include each visible face, the chimney top and the point where the stack enters the roof. A wider roof photograph provides useful orientation. ### Describe movement, debris or water Say whether bricks, mortar or other fragments have fallen, whether the stack appears changed, and where any damp mark occurs inside. Avoid approaching an area where loose material creates a hazard. ### Mention pots, flues and appliances New Look advertises stack masonry and flashing work, not sweeping, flue lining or appliance servicing. Explain those features in the enquiry so unrelated specialist work is not mistaken for the building repair. ## Treat masonry and flashing as connected details A chimney passes through the roof but remains a separate structure. Looking at brickwork, mortar and the weathered junction together helps the quotation identify the correct repair boundaries. ## Chimney and roofing photographs The company gallery may show rooflines, brick stacks and flashing work supplied by New Look. Images are not claimed as Skegness chimney projects unless their location has been confirmed. ## Questions about chimney work in Skegness These answers distinguish masonry, flashing and services that belong elsewhere. ### Does New Look rebuild chimneys in Skegness? Yes. Francis specifically confirmed that chimney building and rebuilding are services he wants to undertake, alongside repair and repointing of existing stacks. ### Can you repoint only part of a chimney? Localised and wider pointing can be considered. The condition of the surrounding mortar and bricks determines whether a smaller area or broader masonry repair should be quoted. ### Can flashing be included with the stack repair? Yes. Flashing around a chimney is within the roofing work New Look advertises. The proposal should identify the junction work separately from the masonry itself. ### Do you sweep chimneys or service appliances? No such service is advertised. This page concerns external stack brickwork, mortar and roof flashing, while sweeping, flues and connected appliances may require another specialist. ### What if loose masonry may fall? Keep people away from the affected area and do not climb onto the roof. Describe the concern when contacting New Look so the visible condition and safe next step can be discussed. ## Chimney enquiries across PE24 and PE25 New Look prioritises Skegness, including Winthorpe, Seathorne and Seacroft.
