Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to stop using my fireplace if the chimney has a problem?
If you have any concerns about safety, it's best to stop using the fireplace or appliance and have the chimney inspected before continuing to use it.
How often does chimney repointing need doing?
This varies with exposure, materials and age, but many chimneys need repointing at some point over their lifetime as mortar naturally wears down faster than brickwork.
Can chimney work be done without full scaffolding?
Access methods depend on the height and condition of the chimney — a roofing professional would be able to advise on the safest and most practical approach for your property.
