It’s easy to forget about your chimney, especially if you don’t have a working fireplace, but upkeeping the chimney stack is a key part of roof maintenance.

CALL US NOWHeritage Roofing and Property Services works on all aspects of chimney stacks. We also repair chimneys of any size, on any pitched roof. Our services include:
Chimney bricks are held together with mortar. This mortar breaks down over time, creating cracks and gaps which water can seep into, putting your home at risk of water damage. Luckily, our roofing contractors can fix issues with the mortar to prevent water ingress. Our chimney repointing service involves patching and replacing mortar in the joints to create watertight brickwork.
Repointing also improves the look of the chimney and makes it more secure.
Has your chimney pot, cap or cowl fallen off or gone missing? Have you noticed damage to one of these fixtures? If so, contact professionals for repairs or replacements. Pots, caps and cowls help stop water, birds and pests from entering your property, keeping you safe from the damage and problems these can cause. Furthermore, if you have a working fireplace, the chimney cowl and pot are important for keeping your fireplace safe and functional.
Heritage Roofing and Property Services offers chimney pot replacements and repairs, along with cap and cowl replacements, as part of our chimney repairs.
Where required, our roofing contractors can completely rebuild chimneys on domestic properties in Weston-super-Mare, Burnham-on-Sea, Bridgwater and the surrounding areas. We generally recommend a rebuild if chimney damage is extensive or there are structural flaws.
