Chimney Repairs And Leadwork in St Austell

Living in Cornwall means our roofs have a lot to deal with. It isn’t just the rain; it’s the salt air and those fierce gales that push water into the tiniest of gaps. Most homeowners we chat with don't realise their chimney mortar is perishing until they see water staining their wallpaper. If your chimney hasn't been looked at in a decade, the 'flaunching'—that sloped mortar cap at the top—might be cracked, or the pots could be loose. We provide thorough inspections to catch these small issues before they turn into expensive structural repairs. We understand the local architecture here, from the slate-hung terraces to the stone-built farmhouses, and we use the right materials, like traditional lime mortars where needed, to ensure your home breathes properly and looks its best.
