Typical Chimney Issues Across the Western Midlands

Many houses across the Western Midlands develop chimney problems over time, particularly those with older brickwork, weathered mortar, and patched leadwork. Common issues include:

• Cracked, loose or missing mortar joints on the stack (repointing required)
• Flaunching breakdown around chimney pots, letting rain soak into the top of the stack
• Damaged leadwork and flashing around chimneys (splits, lifting edges, failed chases and sealant)
• Chimney deterioration, loose brickwork, spalled bricks and movement cracks
• Loose, leaning or damaged chimney pots and cowls (including missing caps and bird guards)
• Rain entry into redundant flues where caps/covers are missing or incorrectly fitted
• Damp staining around chimney breasts caused by water tracking through masonry
• Blocked, leaking or overflowing guttering nearby soaking brickwork and worsening damp
• Leaks where the chimney meets roof coverings (tiles/slates, valleys, abutments and dormers)
• Wear, corrosion or movement on metal flashings, trays and fixings around the stack

Because chimney faults can turn into serious internal damage, it’s essential to use trained, experienced professionals.
