Chimney repairs in Brighton: repointing, flaunching and new lead
Chimney repairs in Brighton and Hove for stacks that leak, crumble or lean, with new lead where the stack meets the roof. Ring 01273 110448 or send the form for a free written quote.
Chimneys take more weather than any other part of the roof. The mortar between the bricks washes out, the flaunching on top cracks and lets water down inside the stack, and the lead where the chimney meets the tiles lifts or splits. The result is a damp patch on the chimney breast that gets worse every winter.
We repoint stacks, rebuild flaunching, refit pots and cowls, and replace the lead flashings with new step flashing, soakers and a back gutter. On many Brighton terraces the chimney is shared, so we talk to you about the neighbours before we start.
Lead is the other half of the job. Valleys, abutments and dormer cheeks all rely on it. We dress new lead to the right code and length, so it moves with the weather and stays put.

Chimney repairs and leadwork: your questions answered
How much do chimney repairs cost?
Repointing and new flaunching on a standard stack is from about £450 to £1,200, depending on access. New lead flashing round a chimney is from about £350. Scaffold, if needed, is extra and on the quote.
Do I need scaffold?
For most stacks, yes, or a chimney access platform. It is on your written quote.
My chimney is shared. What happens?
We check with you and, where needed, your neighbour before work starts. Shared stacks are common in Brighton terraces.
Can you remove a chimney I do not use?
We can cap and vent it, which stops water and keeps it dry. Removal is a bigger job we quote separately.
