Chimney Repairs for Kendal homeowners

Looking for chimney repairs in Kendal? Crest Roofing & Cladding cover Kendal and the wider Cumbria area as part of our regular working patch, so getting out to look at your roof is straightforward. Call 0800 046 3188 and we will arrange a visit that suits you.

A chimney takes the weather on every side, so it is often the first part of the roof to let water in. The signs usually show up indoors first, as damp on a chimney breast or a stain on a bedroom ceiling, rather than at the roof itself.

We repair and rebuild chimney stacks, renew the flaunching, pots and cowls, and fit or re-dress the lead flashing, soakers and back gutter where the stack meets the roof. Where a stack is beyond saving or no longer needed, we can rebuild it or take it down and make the roof good.

Common questions

Chimney Repairs in Kendal: your questions answered

What is chimney flaunching?

It is the mortar cap that holds the pots and sheds water off the top of the stack. When it cracks, water gets in, so renewing it is a common part of a chimney repair.

Why is there damp on my chimney breast?

It is usually failed flashing or washed-out pointing letting water into the stack, which then tracks down inside the wall. Putting the leadwork and brickwork right stops it at source.

Can you take down a chimney we no longer use?

Yes. We can remove a redundant stack to roof level or below and make the roof watertight where it stood.

My chimney is leaning, can it be saved?

Often it needs rebuilding from the point where the mortar has failed. We assess it and explain honestly whether a rebuild or a full removal is the better option.

Do you fit chimney cowls?

Yes. Cowls help keep out rain and birds and can assist with draught or damp problems. We fit the type that suits what you need.
