Chimney flashing plays an important role in protecting your roof from water ingress. It creates a watertight seal between the chimney and roof, preventing rainwater from getting into the property.

Over time, flashing can deteriorate, crack or become loose, allowing water to pe*****te and potentially cause damp and internal damage.

Our team recently carried out chimney flashing repairs for our customer in Ryde, completing the work without the need for scaffolding.

If your chimney flashing is showing signs of wear, we can help with professional repairs to keep your roof watertight.

Choosing the right fuel helps reduce smoke and the build-up of soot and tar in your chimney. We recommend burning dry, seasoned wood or fuel certified as Ready to Burn.

For firewood on the Isle of Wight, we highly recommend Chessell Woodyard.

Regular chimney maintenance is equally important. We carry out chimney repairs and maintenance, using our specialist cherry picker to access difficult-to-reach areas without the need for scaffolding where suitable.

Crumbling chimney mortar? Here’s why it matters.

The mortar between your chimney bricks does more than hold them together. It helps protect the structure from wind and rain.

Over time, exposure to the elements can cause mortar to crack, crumble or loosen. Left untreated, this can allow water to pe*****te the brickwork and lead to more extensive damage.

What should you look out for?
- Gaps or cracks between bricks
- Mortar that flakes or crumbles away
- Loose bricks or visible deterioration
- Damp patches around the chimney or fireplace

If you notice these signs, it’s worth arranging an inspection before the damage gets worse.

We carry out chimney repairs across the Isle of Wight, helping homeowners keep their properties safe and well maintained.

Get ahead of the winter rush!

If you have a log burner, wood burner or open fire, an annual chimney sweep is an important part of keeping your chimney and appliance safe and ready for use. It’s also worth checking for any repairs or maintenance that could become a bigger problem once the weather turns.

November and December can be particularly busy, so book your chimney sweep now and get one more job ticked off your winter preparation list.
