Chimney Repairs And Leadwork in Wadebridge Operating Across Cornwall
Expert Chimney Care for Wadebridge Homes
Living in Wadebridge, we're all used to that bracing North Cornwall wind, but while it's great for a walk along the Camel Trail, it can be brutal on your chimney. Your chimney stack is the most exposed part of your house, taking the full force of every Atlantic gale and heavy downpour. At Cornwall & Plymouth Roofing, we've seen how easily a tiny crack in the mortar or a loose bit of lead can turn into a messy damp patch on your bedroom ceiling. Whether you're in the heart of town or out in Egloshayle, we're here to make sure your stack is as solid as the day it was built. We don't just patch things up; we provide long-term fixes that keep the rain exactly where it belongs—outside.
Why Choose Us?
Stopping Leaks with Traditional Leadwork Mastery
Ever noticed water staining the wallpaper around your chimney breast? Most of the time, the culprit isn't the brickwork itself, but the lead flashing. This is the seal where the chimney meets your roof tiles. If it's been poorly installed or has simply perished over time, water will find a way in. We specialise in traditional lead bossing and welding, using high-quality Code 4 or Code 5 lead that's designed to last anywhere from 60 to 100 years. We don't believe in quick-fix tapes or sealants that peel off after one winter. Instead, we use proper techniques like fitting individual soakers and stepped flashings that move with your house and stay watertight through the toughest Cornish seasons.

Who We Are
Professional Repointing and Structural Repairs
Have you spotted bits of grit or mortar sitting in your gutters? That's usually a sign that the 'pointing'—the mortar between your chimney's bricks or stones—is starting to crumble away. Once that mortar perishes, water gets into the stack, and when the frost hits, it can actually push the bricks apart. We offer a thorough repointing service where we rake out the old, sandy debris and replace it with a fresh, weather-resistant mix. For older properties in nearby villages like St Mabyn or Chapel Amble, we can even use traditional lime-based mortars to ensure the masonry can breathe properly. It’s all about maintaining the structural integrity of the stack so you don't end up needing a full rebuild later on.

Secure Flaunching and Chimney Pot Replacement
If you look up at your roof, you'll see a sloped bed of mortar at the very top of the chimney that holds the pots in place—this is called the flaunching. Over years of baking in the sun and freezing in the rain, this 'crown' can crack, letting water seep straight down into the flue. We can strip away that old, cracked benching and apply a strong, new mortar bed to keep your pots secure. Speaking of pots, if yours are chipped or you've got an unused flue that's letting in birds or creating a cold draught, we can fit breathable caps or cowls. This keeps the rain and the jackdaws out while still allowing enough airflow to prevent internal dampness from building up.
