Working on them properly needs access equipment and experience. Calvin and his teams have been doing this for over 20 years. The cost of waiting ## What happens if it's ignored Weathered chimneys let water in quietly, and can become a safety risk. ### Leaks into rooms Water soaks through eroded mortar and runs down inside the stack, showing up as damp on chimney breasts. ### Loose masonry Bricks, stones and pots can work loose and fall onto the roof, gutters, paths or cars. ### Frost damage Wet masonry expands when it freezes, cracking bricks and pushing more mortar out every winter. ### Roof damage below Falling debris from a stack can break slates and tiles and block gutters. ### Common mistakes to avoid - ✕Painting or coating a chimney instead of repointing failed joints. - ✕Blaming condensation for damp that's actually coming from the stack. - ✕Ignoring cracked flaunching because the pots still look fine from the ground. - ✕Leaving a leaning stack until it becomes dangerous.

In detail ## Chimney Repairs & Repointing explained ### Chimney repointing Mortar joints wear away over time from rain, wind and frost. Repointing means raking out the old mortar to a sound depth and filling the joints with fresh mortar, finished to shed water. It's one of the most effective ways to stop a chimney leaking and extend its life. ### Chimney repairs Repairs can include replacing damaged bricks or stones, re-bedding loose pots, renewing cracked flaunching (the mortar around the base of the pots), and repairing or rebuilding sections of the stack. Where the leak is at the junction with the roof, the flashings often need attention too; see our lead work page. ### Older homes and commercial buildings Many stone and brick homes across Northumberland have tall, exposed stacks that have weathered for decades. Commercial buildings can also have chimneys that need the same care. If your property is listed or in a conservation area and works need planning permission, we can handle the application or you can do it yourself. ### Related services - Lead Work → - Roof Repairs → - Slate & Tile Roof Repairs → - Roof Inspections & Photo Reports → ### Areas we cover - Newcastle - Morpeth - Blyth - Ashington - Sunderland - Lynemouth - Ellington - Cramlington - Bedlington - Ponteland - PegswoodAll areas we cover → FAQs ## Chimney Repairs & Repointing questions ### How much does chimney repairs cost in Newcastle or Morpeth? +Every roof is different, so we don't publish set prices.
