If you look up and see bits of mortar on the ground or can see visible gaps between the bricks, it is time for a repair. Damp patches on the ceiling inside your home near the chimney breast are also a big warning sign. In Winsford, the weather can be quite harsh, so keeping an eye on the condition of your mortar helps prevent the whole stack from becoming unstable.

Lead flashing is the metal strip that connects your chimney to the roof tiles. It is there to create a waterproof seal. Because lead is flexible, it can be shaped to fit tightly, stopping rain from getting into the gap where the chimney meets the roof. If this lead is cracked or has pulled away, you will likely end up with a leak.

It depends on the size of the roof, but it is a standard job for us. Soakers sit under the tiles, while valley liners handle the water run-off where two roof slopes meet. If these are made of old lead that has worn thin, we can swap them for new, high-quality lead or modern alternatives. It is a smart move for roof maintenance that saves you from expensive structural repairs later on.

Yes, if a chimney stack has become dangerous or is leaning significantly, we can safely dismantle it and rebuild it using fresh bricks and mortar. We make sure the new stack is tied in properly and finished with new leadwork. This is a common service we provide across Cheshire West and Chester to make sure older properties remain safe and watertight.
