Chimney Leadwork

Vulnerable junctions around chimney stacks are the most common source of roof leaks. We install custom lead flashings, valleys, and gutters to seal your chimney against water penetration and protect your interior from damp.

When You Need Chimney Leadwork

Water stains or damp patches are visible on walls surrounding your fireplace or chimney breast. Lead flashings around the base of your chimney are cracking, lifting, or coming loose. Mortar joints between chimney bricks are eroding or crumbling away. Moss and damp growth are heavy around the chimney stack exterior.

How We Do It

We inspect the chimney stack, flashing, and surrounding roof slates for failure points. We provide a clear, competitive quote detailing the required leadwork and masonry repairs. We carefully remove old, failing lead and mortar, then dress custom-cut lead flashings into brickwork chases. We repoint exposed brickwork, clear away all debris, and leave your roof completely watertight.

What to Expect

Most standard chimney flashing repairs or re-leads are completed within 1 day.
