Chimney Repair in Ashford, Maidstone

From a few loose bricks at the top to significant structural concerns, we handle all sorts of chimney repairs. This includes re-pointing worn mortar, replacing damaged bricks, repairing or replacing lead flashing where the chimney meets the roof tiles, and sorting out problems with chimney pots and cowls. We’ve seen it all over the years working across Kent, so you can trust us to diagnose the problem accurately and provide the right solution.

Water ingress is perhaps the most common issue we see. This often comes from faulty flashing, cracked render, or porous bricks. We also frequently repair storm damage, such as dislodged chimney pots or crumbling stacks after high winds. Whatever the cause, water getting into your chimney stack can eventually soak through to the brickwork below your roof line and even into internal walls, causing damp patches and rot. Getting it sorted quickly is key.

When you call us about a chimney repair, we'll arrange a visit to assess the situation properly. We take pride in our work and believe in doing things properly the first time. Our experienced team will explain exactly what needs doing, why it's necessary, and how we plan to carry out the repairs safely and efficiently. We use quality materials designed to withstand the elements for years to come, ensuring a lasting repair.

Sometimes, a chimney stack might be in such poor condition, or perhaps is no longer needed (like with modern heating systems), that repairing it just isn't the most practical or safe option. In these cases, we can also provide professional and safe chimney removal services. This involves carefully dismantling the stack above roof level, making good the roof where it stood, and can also include removing the breast inside the property if required.
