Chimney Repointing

Chimney repointing is the process of removing old, damaged mortar from between bricks and replacing it with fresh mortar. This essential maintenance prevents water ingress, structural damage, and extends your chimney's lifespan significantly.

Signs You Need Repointing:

  • Crumbling or missing mortar between bricks
  • Gaps or cracks in mortar joints
  • Water stains or dampness inside the house
  • Loose or wobbly bricks in the stack
  • Visible white salt deposits (efflorescence)

Why it matters: Damaged mortar allows water to penetrate, leading to frost damage, structural weakness, and costly chimney collapse. Repointing now saves thousands in future repairs.
