Warning Signs

IS YOUR CHIMNEY CAUSING PROBLEMS?

Chimney issues often go unnoticed until the damp spreads inside. Look out for these signs:

  • Damp patch on the ceiling near the chimney breast
  • Water stains on the chimney breast wall
  • Crumbling or missing mortar visible from ground level
  • Efflorescence (white staining) on the chimney stack
  • Loose or missing flashing at the base of the stack
  • Bricks that look darker or discoloured after rain

CHIMNEY REPOINTING

Crumbling mortar is the most common chimney problem in Kilkenny. We grind out the old, failed mortar and replace it with the correct mix — flexible enough to handle movement and weather.

FLASHING REPAIRS

Lead or aluminium flashing at the chimney base is the most likely source of water ingress around a chimney. We repair or replace failed flashing to stop leaks at the source.

RE-LEADING

Full lead replacement when the existing lead is cracked, lifted, or beyond repair. Done properly, new lead should last 50+ years.

STACK REBUILDING

When the chimney stack itself is structurally compromised, a rebuild is safer and more cost-effective than repeated patching. We match the existing brickwork as closely as possible.

If you can see crumbling or missing mortar from ground level, it needs attention. Inside, damp patches near the chimney breast are a strong indicator. We'll come out and take a proper look.
If the chimney is the source, yes. We identify the entry point accurately before starting work, so we fix the actual cause rather than guess.
Yes — brick, stone, render-finished, single and double flue. Old and new builds.
It requires proper access at height. We have the right equipment and training to work safely on any chimney stack.
