Chimney Repairs And Leadwork in Bodmin Operating Across Cornwall
Protecting Bodmin homes from the Cornish elements
Ever stood in the garden on a wet Tuesday, looking up at your chimney and wondering if that cracked mortar is finally going to let the rain in? In a place like Bodmin, your chimney is the frontline of your home’s defence. It’s the highest point of the house, catching the full force of the Atlantic gales that sweep across the Moor. At Cornwall & Plymouth Roofing, trading as Elite Construction, we’ve spent years helping neighbours across Bodmin and the surrounding villages keep their homes snug and dry. We’re a family-run team that understands exactly what the Cornish weather can do to a chimney stack. Whether you are in a heritage cottage or a modern semi, keeping your chimney in top shape is the best way to avoid nasty surprises during the winter months.
Why Choose Us?
Why Bodmin chimneys need a bit of extra TLC
Most homeowners we chat with only notice there’s a problem when a damp patch starts creeping across the bedroom ceiling or the wallpaper near the chimney breast begins to peel. By that point, the water has already found its way through. The combination of wind-driven rain and the damp air is a recipe for disaster for old masonry. If your chimney hasn't been checked in a while, it might be suffering from water ingress. Getting onto it early doesn’t just save your interior; it protects the structural integrity of the stack itself. We provide thorough chimney maintenance and inspections to catch these issues before they turn into a major headache, checking everything from the brickwork to the stability of your chimney pots.

Who We Are
Traditional leadwork that’s built to last a lifetime
Lead is one of the most reliable materials we use, but it’s only as good as the person installing it. We specialise in traditional leadwork, including lead bossing and welding to create a seamless, watertight seal where your roof meets the chimney. We typically use Code 4 or Code 5 lead replacement, which is thick enough to withstand the local weather for 60 to 100 years. Whether it’s replacing old, split lead flashing or fitting new soakers beneath your slates, we do it the right way. It’s a craft that takes time to master, but the result is a weatherproof finish that gives you complete peace of mind. We don't cut corners with cheap sealants; we use proper lead that’s designed to last for generations.

Stopping the rot with expert repointing and rebuilding
Have you noticed bits of grit or even whole chunks of mortar on the floor after a storm? That’s a clear sign that your chimney's mortar joints are perishing. We provide a full repointing service, removing the old, crumbly stuff and replacing it with a fresh, weather-resistant mix. We also look after the flaunching—that’s the sloped mortar crown at the top that holds your chimney pots in place. If the stack is beyond a simple patch-up, don't panic. We handle full chimney stack rebuilds too, using materials that match your property’s character, whether you’re in the heart of Bodmin or in a village like Lanivet, Withiel, or Roche. Our goal is always to make the repair look like it’s always been there.
