Chimney Work - Lead Flashings, Cement Work, and Removal

Chimney work encompasses a range of repairs and maintenance tasks aimed at ensuring the structural integrity and functionality of chimneys. At EJ Roofing Services LTD, we specialize in addressing common chimney issues and providing comprehensive solutions to protect your chimney from weather elements and structural deterioration.

Common Problems:

  • Lead Flashings: Lead flashings are susceptible to damage from storms or wind, leading to them falling out or developing splits that require replacement. Properly installed and maintained lead flashings are essential for preventing water infiltration into the chimney structure.
  • Cement Flaunching: Cement flaunching, the mortar seal around the base of the chimney pot, can crack over time due to weather exposure and thermal expansion. Cracked flaunching needs to be replaced to prevent water penetration and damage to the chimney stack.
  • Chimney Pots: Chimney pots may require capping to prevent debris, birds, and rainwater from entering the chimney flue. Capping also helps to improve chimney draft and prevent downdrafts.
  • Chimney Brickwork: The brickwork of chimneys can deteriorate over time due to exposure to weather elements. Repointing, or replacing damaged mortar between bricks, is necessary to maintain the structural integrity of the chimney and prevent water infiltration.
  • Chimney Removal: In addition to repairs, we also offer chimney removal services. We carefully dismantle chimneys brick by brick until they are below the roof level. We then batten across and tile over with matching tiles, seamlessly blending the roof as if the chimney was never there.

Our Method of Rectification: At EJ Roofing Services LTD, we begin chimney repairs by conducting a thorough inspection to identify any areas of concern. Our skilled team then implements targeted repairs, which may include replacing lead flashings, repairing or replacing cement flaunching, capping chimney pots, and repointing brickwork as needed. For chimney removals, we ensure a meticulous process that leaves your roof looking seamless and structurally sound.

Guarantee and Quality Assurance: We offer guarantees on all new chimney work, including the installation of lead flashings. Our goal is to provide you with peace of mind knowing that your chimney is structurally sound, weatherproof, and compliant with industry standards.

Whether your chimney requires minor repairs, removal, or extensive restoration, you can trust the expertise and dedication of the team at EJ Roofing Services LTD to deliver superior craftsmanship and exceptional results.
