Chimney Repairs & Repointing in Sunderland
Storm damage to chimneys in Sunderland is common — high winds dislodge pots, loosen flashings, and crack pointing. We attend insurance call-outs across Tyne and Wear with proper documentation and itemised quotes.
Why Choose Us for Chimney Repairs & Repointing in Sunderland
Proper Scaffolding Always
We never cut corners on chimney access. Full scaffolding for safe work at height — included in every quote.
Right Mortar for Your Chimney
Lime mortar for older properties, modern mixes for post-war stacks. Wrong mortar mix accelerates failure — we get this right.
Code 4/5 Lead Flashings
Proper lead, dressed in and pointed correctly. Not the cheap aluminium tape fixes that fail within years.
Insurance-Claim Documentation
Written reports, photos and itemised quotes for storm damage claims. We can liaise directly with your insurer.
