Chimney Repairs & Repointing in Norwich & Norfolk

Standing proud above the ridge, the chimney is the most exposed part of any roof, and it takes a relentless battering from wind, rain and frost all year round. Because it sits so high and out of easy view, it is also one of the easiest parts of the roof to neglect, and problems often go unnoticed until damp appears indoors or debris starts landing in the garden. Norwich Roofing Company carries out chimney repairs and repointing for homes and businesses right across Norwich and Norfolk.

Over the years, the mortar between the bricks slowly erodes, and once it starts to crumble and fall away, water finds an easy route into the stack and down into the property. Repointing rakes out the old, failing mortar and replaces it with fresh, so the brickwork is sealed and solid once more. It is a straightforward job that makes a real difference, protecting the whole stack and heading off far bigger problems down the line.

Not every chimney issue is so simple, of course. Cracked or leaning stacks, crumbling flaunching, loose or damaged pots and perished flashing can all let water in, and a badly deteriorated chimney can even become a safety concern in high winds. We tackle the lot, from targeted repairs right through to taking a stack down and rebuilding it properly, always with an eye on keeping the chimney safe and sound.

Whether the right answer is a repair, a rebuild or removing a chimney you no longer use, we will give you an honest assessment rather than talking you into unnecessary work. Chimney jobs mean working safely at height and drawing on both roofing and masonry skills, which is exactly what our team brings, and every repair is backed by our workmanship guarantee.
