St Ives has a genuinely varied housing stock — from medieval riverside buildings near the famous bridge to Edwardian semis and postwar estates — and chimney problems turn up across all of them.
The older properties in St Ives, particularly around the town centre and along the Ouse, often have original brick stacks that have never been fully repointed or reseated. Frost damage through winter and the damp conditions close to the river can open up mortar joints faster than you might expect, and once water gets into the stack it works its way down into the roof and party walls. A partial or full chimney rebuild is often more cost-effective than repeated patching.
We rebuild chimney stacks in St Ives from scaffold, taking down deteriorated brickwork to a sound course and rebuilding with matched brick and fresh flaunching. If your chimney is visibly leaning or shedding mortar, call us to arrange a free inspection.
