Expert Chimney Stack Repairs in Marlow
High class roofing provides professional chimney stack repairs across Marlow and the surrounding areas within our 15-mile operating radius. Based in our Datchet hub, Jimmy Frankham and his team specialise in diagnosing and fixing chimney issues that affect the diverse building stock of Buckinghamshire. From historic Victorian stacks to the more modern chimneys found on 1930s residential homes, we ensure that your chimney remains a secure and functional part of your roofline.
Why Chimney Mortar and Flaunching Fail
Over time, the mortar joints between your chimney bricks can begin to crack and erode. This is often caused by a combination of harsh Thames Valley weather, including heavy rain and wind, alongside the natural freeze-thaw cycle which expands existing gaps in the masonry. Furthermore, the acidic nature of flue gases can accelerate the breakdown of internal and external mortar. We address these issues through precise chimney repointing, using high-grade mortar mixes that match the aesthetics and requirements of your specific property type. We also assess the chimney flaunching, the sloped cement finish at the top of the stack that seals the flue, to prevent moisture from seeping directly into the brickwork.

Professional Leadwork Repairs for Secure Chimneys
Water ingress around a chimney stack is frequently caused by failed or poorly fitted lead flashings. Whether it is the apron at the front, the side soakers, or the stepped flashings along the chimney abutment, damaged lead allows rainwater to track inside your roof space and cause damage to timbers and ceilings. We replace deteriorated lead with durable Code 4 or Code 5 lead, correctly dressed to ensure water is shed away from the chimney and directed safely onto the surrounding roof tiles.

01256 639416What to do if your chimney is damaged
If you notice loose bricks, shifting pots, or damp patches appearing on your bedroom ceilings near the chimney breast, it is important to act quickly. Neglecting these signs can lead to larger structural problems or dangerous stack instability, particularly during high-wind storms which are common across the Buckinghamshire border. We provide clear, honest assessments of your chimney status and will only recommend repairs that are necessary to restore the integrity and weatherproofing of your stack.
