Flashings & Flaunching

Damp on a chimney breast in Knaresborough is often the first sign that the stack needs attention. Chimney repointing rakes out the worn joints and refills them so the stack is solid and watertight again.

If your chimney is in Scotton, Harrogate and Wetherby, the same service applies. Use the form or call 0800 158 8240.

Roofer working on a chimney stack

The Whole Stack Checked

Pointing, flaunching, pots and flashings are all looked at, so a repointing job is not undone by a flashing left to fail.

Proper Repointing

Worn mortar is raked out to a sound depth before the joints are refilled, so the new pointing bonds and lasts.

Roof & Chimney Together

Tiles and lead around the stack are part of the same job, so the chimney and the roof meet watertight.

Speak to the Owner

Evian Roofing is owner run, so the person who looks at your chimney is the person responsible for the repair.

What Is Chimney Repointing?

Repointing means raking out the old, worn mortar between the bricks of a chimney stack and refilling the joints with fresh mortar. It stops rain soaking into the brickwork and keeps the stack solid.

How Do I Know If My Chimney Needs Repointing?

Look for mortar that is crumbling, sandy or sitting well back from the face of the bricks, gaps between bricks, or damp on the chimney breast inside. Any of these usually means the joints are letting water in.

Why Is There Damp Around My Chimney Breast?

The usual causes are failed lead flashings where the stack meets the roof, worn pointing, cracked flaunching on top of the stack or an uncapped pot. Checking the chimney from the roof shows which one it is.

Can a Loose Chimney Pot Be Refixed?

Yes. A loose pot is usually reset in new flaunching, the sloped mortar bed on top of the stack. A pot that is cracked or broken is replaced.
