About Llandudno Junction Properties
Victorian railway-era terraces on Conway Road and station grid streets. Post-war semis on eastern fringe. Mixed-era roofing common from extensions added across multiple decades.
Afon Conwy flood plain creates higher humidity than surrounding elevated ground. Valley damp accelerates moss growth and mortar erosion. Less direct sea exposure than coastal towns.
Why Llandudno Junction Specifically Matters for Chimney Repairs
The Valley's higher humidity environment means chimney mortar in the Junction stays damp for longer periods than equivalent properties on higher ground nearby. This chronic moisture accelerates mortar erosion — particularly on north-facing stack joints that never fully dry between rainfall events. We find mortar failure in the Junction advancing 20-30% faster than comparable properties in Llandudno itself.
Our Chimney Repairs Process
Full Stack Inspection from Scaffold
We don't quote chimney repairs from the ground. A full inspection from scaffold level identifies mortar condition, flashing integrity, pot stability and render cracks before we price the work.
Correct Mortar Specification
Period properties require NHL lime mortar — not cement. Cement mortar on soft stone or handmade brick causes accelerated decay. We specify correctly every time.
Lead Flashings to BS Standard
All flashing replacement uses code-grade lead to BS EN 12588. Step flashings, soakers, back gutters and aprons installed to current standards with correct lap and fixings.
