Chimney Repairs And Leadwork in St Blazey Operating Across Cornwall
Keep your St Blazey home dry with expert chimney care
Living in St Blazey, you'll know exactly how the weather likes to test us. Whether it is a bit of Cornish mizzle or a full-blown Atlantic gale rattling the windows, your home's first line of defence is that chimney stack sitting high above the roofline. It is the most exposed part of your property, taking the brunt of every storm and the constant salt-laden air. When things go wrong up there, it doesn't take long for a small issue to turn into a damp patch on your bedroom ceiling. At Cornwall & Plymouth Roofing, we have spent years helping homeowners across St Blazey and the surrounding villages protect their properties with specialist chimney repairs and traditional leadwork. Trading as Elite Construction, we are a family-run team that believes in doing a job properly the first time, using materials that are built to last as long as the house itself.
Why Choose Us?
Why St Blazey chimneys need a bit of extra love
Have you ever looked up at your chimney stack after a particularly nasty winter and noticed a few bits of mortar lying in the gutter? That is often the first sign that the 'flaunching'—the sloped mortar bed that holds your chimney pots in place—is starting to crack. In our part of the world, the combination of driving rain and freezing temperatures can quickly expand those tiny cracks. Before you know it, water is seeping into the brickwork, causing internal damp or even making the stack itself unstable. We see it all the time in older properties around Par and Tywardreath, where the original mortar has simply reached the end of its life. Our approach is simple: we carry out a thorough inspection to see exactly what is happening, from the pots down to the lead flashing, so you are never left guessing about the state of your roof.

Who We Are
From repointing to rebuilds: we handle it all
Every chimney is different, and we tailor our work to suit the age and style of your home. If your brickwork is looking a bit tired, we provide professional repointing, carefully removing the old, perished mortar and replacing it with a fresh, weather-resistant mix that allows the building to breathe. Sometimes the damage goes a bit deeper, and that is where our stack rebuild services come in. If a chimney is no longer safe or has become redundant, we can either restore it to its former glory or safely remove it and tile over the area to match your existing roof. We also handle the smaller but equally important bits, like fitting breathable cowls to stop birds nesting in your flues or replacing cracked chimney pots. It is all about ensuring that every part of the stack is doing its job: shedding water and keeping your home airtight.

Professional leadwork that stands the test of time
Lead is often called the 'ultimate' roofing material, and for good reason. When it is installed correctly by someone who knows what they are doing, it can easily last 60 to 100 years. We specialise in traditional leadwork, including lead bossing and welding (or lead burning, as we sometimes call it). This is a real craft that involves shaping and fusing lead sheets to create a seamless, watertight seal where your chimney meets the roof tiles. Many leaks we fix in St Blazey are caused by cheap 'flashband' or poorly fitted lead that has cracked over time. We use high-quality Code 4 and Code 5 lead for our flashings and soakers, ensuring that even when the wind is driving rain horizontally across the Cornish landscape, your roof stays bone dry. It is an investment in your home's future that pays for itself in peace of mind.
