Why Penrhyn Bay Specifically Matters for Chimney Repairs
The consistent semi-detached layout of the Penrhyn Bay estate means chimney stacks are almost always shared party wall features between neighbouring properties. Mortar repairs must coordinate with the neighbour, and we manage this on your behalf. The plain concrete tile era means most Penrhyn Bay chimneys have been pointed in cement — we re-specify in NHL lime mortar where the stack is built in soft brick.
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.
