Expert Chimney Repairs and Leadwork Across St Columb Major
Have you ever looked up at your chimney during a proper Cornish downpour and wondered if it's actually holding up? It’s easy to forget about the highest point of your house until you spot a damp patch on the bedroom ceiling or find a bit of grit in the garden. At Cornwall & Plymouth Roofing (trading as Elite Construction), we’ve spent years helping homeowners in St Columb Major keep their chimneys sturdy and their lofts bone-dry. Whether your stack needs a bit of fresh mortar or your lead flashing has seen better days, we’re the local team you can trust to get the job done properly.
Why Choose Us?
Stop Cornish Weather Damaging Your Chimney Stack
Living in St Columb Major means our homes take a fair bit of stick from the Atlantic gales. Your chimney is right in the firing line, taking the brunt of the wind and rain. Over time, the mortar joints between the bricks can perish, a process we call 'weathering'. If you've noticed small cracks or even moss growing in the joints, that's a sign that water is starting to find its way in. We specialise in chimney repointing, where we carefully remove the old, sandy mortar and replace it with a fresh, weather-resistant mix. It’s a simple fix that prevents much bigger problems, like structural instability or water ingress into your home’s bones.

Who We Are
Leadwork Excellence for a Watertight Finish
Most people don't think much about the lead around their chimney, but it’s actually the silent hero of your roof. This lead flashing creates a watertight seal where the stack meets your slates or tiles. In Cornwall, standard 'stick-on' flashings just won't cut it; you need traditional leadwork that can expand and contract with the temperature. We’re experts in lead bossing and welding, using high-quality materials like Code 4 and Code 5 lead. Whether it's installing hidden soakers or shaping a new apron, our leadwork is designed to last anywhere from 60 to 100 years. It’s an investment that truly protects your property for a lifetime.

Secure Chimney Pots and Professional Flaunching
Ever heard a rattling sound coming from your fireplace during a storm? It might be your chimney pot or the 'flaunching'—that sloped mortar cap at the very top—coming loose. If that mortar crown cracks, water can seep down into the flue, causing internal damp that’s a nightmare to track down. We can quickly get up there to secure loose pots or provide a fresh bed of benching to shed water away from the stack. If you have a redundant chimney that you’re no longer using, we also offer capping and ventilation services. This keeps the birds out and stops the rain from coming down the flue while still letting the stack breathe, which is vital for preventing damp.

01752 741428Full Rebuilds and Safe Chimney Removals
Sometimes, a bit of repointing isn't quite enough. If a chimney stack has become leaning or dangerously unstable, it might require a partial or full rebuild. We’ve handled many projects in St Columb Major where we’ve had to carefully dismantle a stack and rebuild it using traditional materials that match the character of the street. Alternatively, if you’re renovating and find that an old chimney is just taking up valuable space, we can safely remove it and patch the roof over so you’d never even know it was there. We’ll handle everything from the scaffolding to the final tile, ensuring your home stays safe and looks great.
