Why Choose Kevington Roofing for Chimney Repointing?

Is Your Chimney Showing Signs of Mortar Damage?

Many homeowners in the South London area don't notice chimney issues until a leak appears inside the home. Common signs that you need a specialist to look at your stack include visible gaps in the mortar joints, loose bricks, or debris found in your gutters. If you notice 'spalling'—where the brick faces start to flake away—it is often a sign that moisture is trapped due to failing mortar. Our team provides thorough inspections to identify these problems before they escalate into costly structural repairs.

How We Restore Your Chimney Stack to Peak Condition

Our repointing process is meticulous and designed for longevity. We start by safely accessing the chimney and raking out the old, degraded mortar to a consistent depth. We then apply a high-quality mortar mix that is specifically chosen to match your property's existing aesthetic and technical requirements. Whether your home is a Victorian terrace in Bromley or a modern build in Ramsden, we ensure the new pointing provides a robust barrier against the elements. We also inspect the lead flashing and chimney pots as part of our comprehensive service.

Trusted Chimney Specialists Serving South London and Kent

Based in Orpington, Kevington Roofing and Building LTD is a local, family-run business that understands the specific architectural styles found across Bromley and the surrounding 20-mile radius.

As a fully insured and registered company (No: 12676001), we offer peace of mind alongside our high standards of workmanship.

Why Is Regular Chimney Maintenance Essential for Your Home?

Neglecting your chimney can lead to more than just a damp patch on the ceiling. Weak mortar can allow frost to expand within the joints, eventually making the entire stack unstable. This poses a significant safety risk to your roof and anyone below. By choosing a professional repointing service, you protect your flue, prevent internal smoke leakage, and maintain the value of your property. Our advice is always honest and transparent, focusing on the long-term health of your roofline.

Chimney Repointing FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our professional chimney repointing, brickwork restoration, and mortar repair services in Ramsden, Bromley, and across Croydon & South London.

Why Use a Drone for Inspections?

+

It is much safer than using ladders for a first look.
It saves you money on scaffolding costs.
High-res images show tiny cracks that you can’t see from the ground.
It provides a clear paper trail for mortgage lenders or insurers.

What are the signs that my chimney needs repointing?

+

If you notice bits of mortar on the ground or see gaps between the bricks when looking through binoculars, it is time for a check-up. White salt stains or damp patches on the breast inside your house also suggest that water is getting through the mortar joints.

How does Kevington Roofing fix a leaking chimney stack?

+

We start by checking the lead flashing and the mortar. Often, we need to grind out the old, crumbling mortar and replace it with a fresh mix that matches your home’s look. This is called repointing. If the bricks themselves are "blown" or cracked, we can replace them to make the stack solid again.

Is chimney repointing a messy job?

+

We use dust extraction tools to keep things as clean as possible. While there is always a bit of debris when removing old mortar, we make sure your roof and garden are protected and we tidy up completely once the masonry repairs are finished.

Do I need to replace the lead flashing when I have the chimney repaired?

+

Not always, but it is often the best time to do it. Lead flashing is the waterproof seal between the chimney and the roof. If it is cracked or pulling away, replacing it while we are already working on the brickwork restoration saves you money on future call-outs.

Can you handle repairs on very tall chimney stacks in Bromley?

+

Yes. Whether your home is a Victorian terrace or a modern detached house, we have the equipment to reach high stacks safely. For very complex repairs, we can arrange the necessary scaffolding to make sure the work is done to the highest standard.

How long will a chimney stack repair last?

+

When we do a full repointing job and fix any damaged bricks, you should expect the repair to last for decades. Using the right mortar mix is the secret to making sure it stands up to the wind and rain we get here in the South East.
