Common Chimney Problems We Fix

Chimneys in Brighton and Hove face constant exposure to coastal winds, salt air and heavy rainfall. These conditions accelerate wear and tear, leading to issues that can cause leaks, damp, structural instability and even safety risks. Here are the most common problems we repair.

Cracked or Loose Mortar

Weathered mortar joints allow water to penetrate the brickwork, causing damp patches and structural weakening. Repointing restores strength and protects your home from moisture damage.

Leaking Lead Flashing

Damaged or poorly fitted lead flashing is one of the most common causes of chimney leaks. We repair or replace leadwork to create a watertight seal around the chimney base.

Damaged Chimney Pots

Cracked or unstable chimney pots can lead to falling debris and poor ventilation. We replace damaged pots and install cowls to improve airflow and safety.

Blocked Chimney Flues

Nesting, soot build‑up or debris can restrict airflow, causing smoke issues and potential fire hazards. We clear blockages and ensure your flue is safe and functioning properly.
