Chimney Pointing · Leeds & Surrounding Areas
Professional chimney repointing to replace deteriorated mortar, help prevent water ingress and protect exposed chimney brickwork from further weather damage.
Protecting Exposed Chimney Masonry
Chimneys are one of the most exposed and vulnerable parts of any property — constantly subject to wind, rain, frost and temperature change. Over time, the mortar between the bricks erodes and cracks, allowing water to penetrate the stack and cause damage that can travel down into the roof space and chimney breast.
FJJ Roofing carries out chimney repointing across Leeds and surrounding areas — raking out deteriorated mortar and repointing with an appropriate mix to arrest water ingress and protect the stack.
Many Leeds properties have chimneys built with hard mortar that has cracked over time. We repoint with a softer, more flexible mix that allows for natural movement without cracking.
What We Offer
From deteriorated mortar joints and damaged flaunching to rendering, coping stones and surrounding ridge work, we inspect the chimney properly before carrying out the required repairs.
Deteriorated mortar joints are properly raked out and repointed with an appropriate mortar mix.
Cracked or deteriorated flaunching around chimney pots repaired or replaced where required.
Damaged chimney stack rendering repaired where deterioration is leaving the stack exposed.
Ridge mortar and coping stone joints repointed or repaired where deterioration has occurred.
The chimney stack is inspected before work begins to identify deterioration and the repairs required.
Scaffolding can be arranged where required to provide safe access to the chimney stack.
Mortar deterioration leaves exposed chimney masonry increasingly vulnerable to rain and frost. Visible cracking, crumbling or internal damp can all indicate that the stack needs attention.
Mortar joints around the chimney stack are visibly cracking or beginning to crumble away.
Damp patches are appearing on chimney breasts or ceilings close to the chimney stack.
The flaunching around the chimney pot is visibly cracked or deteriorating.
Your chimney has not been inspected for several years and its condition is uncertain.
Chimney repointing done properly uses the right mortar mix for the age and type of brickwork. A mix that is too hard can cause the bricks themselves to crack.
FJJ Roofing uses appropriate pointing mixes for Leeds's varied housing stock, helping protect the chimney properly without damaging the surrounding masonry.
Deteriorated mortar is properly removed before the new pointing is applied.
The pointing mix is selected to suit the age and type of the chimney brickwork.
