Professional Chimney Repair Services in Eastbourne

We offer a full range of chimney repair and maintenance services, from minor repairs to complete chimney rebuilds. Our skilled team works with care and precision to ensure your chimney is structurally sound, weather-resistant, and in line with the style of your property.

Our chimney services include:

  • Chimney Repointing: Over time, mortar joints can deteriorate due to weather exposure. Repointing involves removing damaged mortar and replacing it with fresh, weatherproof mortar to restore stability and prevent leaks.
  • Chimney Lead Flashing Repairs: Damaged or perished lead flashing can allow rainwater to penetrate the roof. We repair or replace chimney flashings to create a watertight seal and protect the surrounding roofing structure.
  • Chimney Cowl and Pot Installation: We can fit or replace chimney cowls and pots to prevent downdraughts, water ingress and pest access, improving both performance and safety.
  • Chimney Stack Repairs: From cracked brickwork to leaning stacks, we undertake all forms of repair work to restore structural integrity and visual appearance.
  • Chimney Removal or Rebuilds: If your chimney is no longer in use or beyond repair, we can safely dismantle or rebuild the stack in line with current safety standards and building regulations.

All work is completed to a high standard, and we ensure minimal disruption throughout the process.

  • Damp patches or water stains inside your home near the chimney breast
  • Dislodged or cracked chimney pots

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my chimney needs repointing?

If you notice crumbling mortar, gaps between bricks, or loose masonry around your chimney stack, it’s likely that repointing is needed. These signs indicate that the mortar is no longer providing adequate support or weather protection.

Yes. Cracked bricks, worn mortar, or faulty flashing around the chimney can allow water to enter the roof space, leading to damp patches and internal damage. Prompt repairs can prevent further issues and save you money.

We carry out chimney repairs on all residential and commercial properties, including bungalows, terraced houses, period homes and newer builds. Our team is experienced in working at height and with various chimney styles.

Scaffolding is often required for safe access, especially when working on tall or difficult-to-reach chimneys. We’ll assess this during the site visit and include all necessary access arrangements in our quotation.

The timeframe depends on the extent of the work. Simple repointing may be completed in a day, while larger rebuilds can take several days. We’ll provide a clear timeline once we’ve inspected the chimney.
