Masonry Chimneys
Traditional masonry chimneys are constructed from brick, stone, or concrete blocks.
We work with
Chimney Pots, Cowls and Flaunching
We secure loose pots, repair damaged flaunching and fit suitable cowls where needed. We help protect the top of the chimney from water, debris and bird entry.
What we do
Chimney Repairs
We repair damaged chimney stacks, loose brickwork, cracked mortar, worn flaunching, unstable pots and weather-damaged sections. We make the chimney safer, stronger and better protected against water ingress.
Chimney Removals
We remove unsafe, unused or unwanted chimney stacks where required. We take the stack down safely and make good the roof area afterwards, matching the surrounding roof covering as closely as possible.
Chimney Repointing
We rake out failed mortar and repoint chimney brickwork with fresh mortar. We restore strength to the joints, improve the appearance of the stack and help reduce water penetration.
We repair and replace lead flashings around chimneys, roof abutments, valleys and other vulnerable junctions. Our leadwork is carefully fitted to direct water away from the roof structure, helping prevent leaks and protect key roof joints.
We inspect the chimney, leadwork, brickwork, flaunching and nearby roof covering to find likely causes of leaks. We then carry out the smallest repair needed to restore long-lasting weather protection.
We work in Holt all year round
We serve most postcodes including NR25.
In Holt, we often work on Georgian and early Victorian homes with red or grey-glazed clay pantiles, occasional slate and chimneys, so matching existing coverings matters and scaffold often needs planning around narrow lanes and terraced frontages. Being only a few miles from the coast can also make secure fixings and flashing checks sensible on more exposed roofs.

Came out to visit same day and had a good examination of our roof from the inside and outside. Was able to pinpoint the exact problem. He said he would be with me by 8am the next day and was on the dot. Took 2 days to complete and had no issues, excellent service.

Ben came round promptly, took his drone up to look at the chimney stack from every angle and gave a quote based on exactly what work was required. Work was completed to a high standard the following week. Would not hesitate to use again.
