Chimney Repairs

Chmneys bear the brunt of all weather, making them a common source of roof leaks. Primehaven Roofing handles repointing, flashing repairs, and stack rebuilding to keep your chimney structurally sound.

When You Need Chimney Repairs

Cracked or crumbling mortar joints between the chimney bricks. Damp patches appearing on walls directly around your chimney breast indoors. Loose or damaged lead flashing sealing the chimney to the roof tiles. A leaning chimney stack or missing chimney pot.

How We Do It

We inspect the chimney stack, mortar, pots, and flashing condition. We rake out damaged mortar and repoint joints with weather-resistant mix. We renew lead flashings and aprons to prevent water ingress at roof junctions. We check the structural stability of the stack before finishing.

What to Expect

Most chimney repointing and flashing repairs take 1 to 2 days to complete.
