Cardiff & Surrounding Areas
Weather takes its toll on chimney stacks. Martyn carries out repairs to keep your chimney watertight and safe — from repointing and new flaunching to fitting cowls that stop rain, birds and downdraught.
Chimney stacks take the full force of Welsh weather. Cracked flaunching, crumbling mortar and broken pots let water into the stack, causing damp patches on ceilings and chimney breasts. Our chimney repair service in Cardiff fixes the problem at the source so your chimney stays watertight and safe.
When mortar between chimney bricks erodes, water gets in and frost damage follows. We rake out failed joints and repoint the stack with fresh mortar, replacing damaged bricks where needed to restore the strength of the chimney.
Flaunching is the cement cap that holds your chimney pots in place and sheds rainwater. We replace cracked flaunching, reset loose pots and fit chimney cowls, rain caps and bird guards to stop rain, birds and downdraught. Our photos show recent cowl and flaunching work on Cardiff rooftops.

Flaunching is the cement that holds chimney pots in place and sheds rainwater off the top of the stack. Cracked flaunching lets water in and should be replaced.
A cowl helps keep rain, birds and debris out of your chimney and can reduce downdraught. Martyn will recommend the right one for your chimney.
