Chimney Leak Repairs in Stourport on Severn

Chimney leaks are one of the most common causes of damp patches, stained ceilings, and water ingress in homes across Stourport on Severn. At Sealine Roofing, we specialise in fast, accurate, and long-lasting chimney leak repairs — making your roof watertight and preventing further internal damage.

Whether the problem is failing leadwork, loose bricks, cracked mortar, or damaged flashing, our roofing experts quickly identify the source of the leak and restore your chimney to full working condition.

Common Causes of Chimney Leaks

Chimney leaks can develop for several reasons, especially on older or weather-exposed roofs:

• Cracked or missing lead flashing where the chimney meets the roof.
• Damaged mortar joints caused by age, frost, and weather erosion.
• Loose or spalling brickwork allowing moisture to seep in.
• Broken or slipped tiles around the chimney base.
• Defective chimney caps or cowls letting in rainwater.
• Condensation and poor ventilation inside the flue.

Left untreated, even a small leak can lead to mould, timber rot, internal staining, and expensive structural issues — so early repair is essential.

Our Chimney Leak Repair Services

We offer a full range of leak repair solutions tailored to the condition of your chimney and roof. Our services include:

• Lead flashing repair & replacement for a fully watertight seal.

Signs You May Have a Chimney Leak

Chimney Leak Repair FAQs

1. What’s the most common cause of a chimney leak?

Damaged or worn lead flashing is one of the leading causes of chimney leaks. If the flashing cracks or lifts, water can easily enter the roof space.

2. How do I know if the leak is coming from the chimney or the roof?

Our inspection identifies whether the water ingress is due to chimney brickwork, flashing, caps, or roof tiles. Many leaks appear similar, so a proper survey is essential.

3. Can chimney leaks cause internal damp?

Yes — chimney leaks often cause damp patches on nearby walls, ceilings, and chimney breasts. Over time, this can lead to mould and timber damage.

4. How long does a chimney leak repair take?

Most flashing, repointing, and tile repairs can be completed within a day. More complex structural repairs may take longer, but we’ll explain this during the survey.

5. Do you guarantee chimney leak repairs?

Yes. All our workmanship is covered by a guarantee for your peace of mind. Your quote will include guarantee details based on the repair type.

6. Will repairing the chimney stop damp inside my home?

In most cases, yes — once the chimney is watertight, internal damp typically dries out naturally. If extra damp-proofing is needed, we’ll advise you during our inspection.

7. Can you repair a leaking chimney during bad weather?

Minor emergency measures can be applied during poor weather, but full repairs require safe, dry conditions. We’ll schedule the work as soon as the weather allows.
