What to send us
It depends on the stack's height and access. Many repointing and cowl jobs can be reached with the right access equipment; where a scaffold or tower is genuinely needed, we explain why before any work is agreed.

FAQs
Common questions about chimney repairs
Do I need a scaffold for chimney work?
It depends on the stack's height and access. Many repointing and cowl jobs can be reached with the right access equipment; where a scaffold or tower is genuinely needed, we explain why before any work is agreed.
Can you fit a cowl to stop birds or damp?
Yes — cowl fitting is one of the common jobs we do, whether to keep birds out of an unused flue or help with draught and rain. Fitting starts from £150.
How much does chimney repointing cost?
Cowl fitting starts from £150, a small repointing repair from £250 and a leadwork patch repair from £195. The confirmed price depends on access, height and the condition of the stack.
