Your chimney is an important part of your home. Chimney maintenance to protect your home is a must. Your chimney provides ventilation and helps to keep your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer. However, chimneys can become damaged over time. This can lead to a number of problems, including:
To prevent these problems, it is important to have your #chimney re mortared and repaired on a regular basis. Remortaring is the process of applying new mortar to the joints of your chimney. This helps to seal the joints and prevent leaks. Repairing your chimney involves fixing any structural damage that has occurred.
Lead flashing
Lead Flashing is an important part of your chimney. We advise to regularly inspect the flashing around your chimney to see how much damage there is. If the flashing is only slightly damaged, you may be able to repair it. However, if the flashing is severely damaged, you will need to replace it entirely.
We fully clean the area of old mortar and debris prior to all new lead flashing installs and replacements. Once complete, we seal the area with a waterproof barrier ready to apply the new Lead Flashing. Once applied we then use sealant specifically designed for lead flashing to ensure the repairs can stand the test of time.
