Chimney Repairs And Leadwork in Redruth Operating Across Cornwall
Expert Chimney Repairs for Redruth Homes
If you live in Redruth, you know exactly how those Atlantic gales feel when they're battering the side of the house. Your chimney takes the brunt of it, standing tall against the wind-driven rain and the salty Cornish air. It's often the most neglected part of a roof until you notice a damp patch creeping down the chimney breast or spot a stray bit of mortar on the driveway after a storm. We've been helping neighbours across Cornwall protect their homes from these exact issues for years. Whether you're living in a traditional granite cottage or a more modern home, we'll make sure your stack is solid, safe, and completely watertight.
Why Choose Us?
Watertight Leadwork Designed to Last
Lead is really the unsung hero of your roof. It creates that vital seal where the chimney meets the slates or tiles, and if it's installed by a professional, it can easily last for a hundred years. We specialise in traditional lead bossing and welding, ensuring the "flashing" and "soakers" are tucked in perfectly to keep the rain out. We don't believe in cutting corners with thin materials; we use high-quality Code 4 or Code 5 lead so it can handle the heat of the summer and the chill of a Redruth winter without cracking. If your current lead looks buckled or the cement around it is starting to flake away, it's best to get it sorted before it turns into a major interior leak.

Who We Are
Fixing Cracked Mortar and Loose Pots
Have you noticed your chimney pots looking a bit wonky lately? That’s usually a sign that the "flaunching"—the sloped mortar bed at the very top—has started to perish. Once water gets into those tiny cracks and freezes, it expands and starts pushing the bricks and pots apart. We'll strip away that old, crumbling mortar and replace it with a fresh, weather-resistant mix designed to shed water efficiently. For many of the heritage properties around Redruth and the surrounding villages, we can use traditional lime-based mortars to ensure the masonry can breathe properly, preventing internal damp from building up inside the flues.

Complete Rebuilds for Unstable Stacks
Sometimes a bit of repointing just won't cut it. If a chimney stack has become structurally unsound or is leaning at an angle, a full rebuild is often the only safe way forward. We can carefully dismantle the old, dangerous stack and rebuild it using materials that match the original character of your property. Conversely, if you've got a redundant chimney that's just causing you a headache with leaks, we can safely remove it below the roofline and tile over the gap. We'll always give you a straight-up, honest assessment of what’s actually needed, focusing on what’s best for your home rather than what sounds most impressive.
