Cambridge's mix of Victorian terraces, Edwardian semis and older college-area properties means chimney stacks here take a real battering — and when they start to fail, we rebuild them properly.
The dense rows of brick terraces across Romsey, Petersfield and Newnham were built with tall, slender stacks that were never designed to stand idle for decades. Frost cycles, repointing bodge jobs and years without a working fire leave them cracked, leaning or shedding mortar onto roofs and footpaths below.
We rebuild chimney stacks from the lead flashing up — or from the roof line if the damage runs deeper — using lime mortar mixes suited to older Cambridge brickwork. Every rebuild includes new lead stepped flashings and a proper weathered cap, giving you a stack that will outlast a patch-up repair by twenty years or more.
