Depends on the masonry. Victorian and historic brick requires NHL hydraulic lime. Modern post-war brick uses flexible polymer-modified mortar. We assess and specify correctly — wrong mortar causes more damage than no repointing.
Yes — all chimney repointing, reflashing and flaunching work requires scaffold for safe access and quality of work. Scaffold cost is always included in our chimney quotes.
Visible open mortar joints, white salt staining, internal damp at the chimney breast, or tiles slipping at the chimney junction are all indicators. We offer free chimney surveys — many issues aren't visible from ground level.
Yes — ventilated caps prevent water ingress while maintaining airflow. Full removal to roof level is also available. We advise on the most appropriate option based on stack condition and position.
