About This Service

Chimneys are among the most common sources of roof leaks and are often the first part of a roof to deteriorate. The combination of heat cycling, frost action, and wind loading means mortar joints and lead flashing fail faster around chimneys than almost anywhere else. West Sussex Roofing carry out all aspects of chimney work including full stack repointing, lead flashing replacement, pot and cowl replacement, chimney cap repairs, stack rebuilding, and complete stack removal where chimneys are no longer in use. Removing an unused chimney can prevent ongoing maintenance costs, improve roof efficiency, and eliminate a significant source of future leaks. Where chimneys are to be retained, we ensure all lead work and pointing meets current standards to deliver long-term weatherproofing.

Chimney Services — FAQs

Do I need scaffolding for chimney repairs?

For most chimney work, yes — safe scaffold access is both a legal requirement and essential for quality workmanship. We always include scaffolding in our chimney repair quotes and can often share the cost if we are already on site for other roof work.

Is it expensive to remove a chimney stack?

Full chimney removal including making good the roof, ceilings, and walls is typically between £1,500–£3,000 depending on the size and number of floors. It tends to pay for itself within a few years by eliminating ongoing maintenance costs.

My chimney is leaning slightly — how urgent is this?

A leaning chimney stack is a serious structural defect and should be surveyed as soon as possible. In severe cases a leaning stack can fall, causing significant damage and injury. Call us for an urgent inspection.
