Roofing in Maidstone

Stop Damp & Loose Masonry at Source

Looking for chimney repairs in Maidstone? We work on homes across Maidstone and the surrounding area from our base in Kent, and every job starts with a proper look at the roof and a written price before any work is booked.

A chimney takes more weather than almost any other part of the house, and the damage is easy to miss from the ground. Cracked flaunching around the pots, eroded mortar joints and tired flashing let water into the stack, and it often shows up as a damp patch on a bedroom wall or ceiling well away from the chimney itself.

We inspect the whole stack, then explain what needs doing and why. Repairs can include rebuilding the flaunching, resetting or replacing pots, repointing the brickwork, renewing the lead flashing where the stack meets the roof, and fitting caps to redundant flues. Where a stack has become unstable, we will tell you straight away and talk through the safest option.

Frequently Asked Questions

Chimney Repairs in Maidstone FAQs

How do I know if my chimney needs repairing?

Look for damp patches near the chimney breast, loose or leaning pots, crumbling mortar, plants growing from the stack or debris in the gutters. If you are unsure, we can take a look.

Why is there damp on my wall next to the chimney?

It is often water getting in through failed flashing, cracked flaunching or porous brickwork. Finding the actual entry point is the first job.

Can you cap a chimney I no longer use?

Yes. A capped flue keeps the rain and birds out while still allowing a little ventilation so the stack does not trap moisture.

Do chimney repairs need scaffolding?

Most do, because the work has to be done safely at the top of the stack. Access is planned and included in your quote.

Can a leaning chimney be repaired?

Sometimes it can be taken down and rebuilt from the roof line. We will explain the options once we have inspected it.
