Repointing and rebuilding are two options for a damaged, leaking or collapsing chimney. Tuck pointing is also an option if your home features tuck pointed brickwork.
Our chimney repointing and masonry services can restore your chimney to its former glory and save you from future troubles.
Chimney brickwork is secured in place by mortar joints. As the mortar joints deteriorate over time, they can produce voids between the bricks where moisture gets in and further damages the mortar as well as causing all sorts of problems within the roof cavity.
If the bricks of your chimney are in good condition, repointing may be the best solution for you. This solution helps in repairing both the appearance and structure of your chimney. Additionally, it prevents further damage and moisture from penetrating the space between the bricks. This is what might eventually cause significant structural damage to your chimney, to the point where it must be rebuilt.
Repointing involves grinding down the mortar joints between the bricks by 20-25mm. The joints are then refilled with new mortar, and the surplus mortar is removed, resulting in a smooth and stunning new appearance for your chimney!
