Chimney Repairs
Chimney Repairs in St Albans & Hertfordshire
Chimneys take the full force of the weather, and over time the mortar, flaunching and flashings that keep them watertight start to fail. We repair chimneys across St Albans and Hertfordshire, from repointing and new flashings to full stack rebuilds.
If a chimney has become loose or unsafe, our emergency call-out service means we can make it secure quickly. If it is no longer used, we can remove it safely and make good the roof.

FAQs
Chimney Repairs FAQs
Can’t see your question? Call us on 07739 794 889.
What are the signs my chimney needs repairing?
Crumbling mortar, loose bricks, a leaning stack, cracked flaunching and damp on the chimney breast inside are all warning signs.
Can you stop water coming in around my chimney?
Usually, yes. Leaks around chimneys are often caused by failed lead flashing or poor pointing, both of which we repair.
Do you fit chimney cowls and caps?
Yes. Caps and cowls stop rain, debris, birds and animals getting into your chimney.
Can you remove a chimney I no longer use?
Yes. We dismantle unused or unsafe stacks and make good the roof afterwards.
Do you need scaffolding for chimney work?
Most chimney work needs scaffold or a safe access platform. We include access in your quote.
Do you offer emergency chimney repairs?
Yes. If a stack is loose or letting water in, call our 24-hour emergency line on 07739 794 889.
