Chimney Stack Repairs in Stourport on Severn
Your chimney stack is one of the most exposed parts of your property — constantly facing wind, rain, frost, and heat. Over time, this can lead to cracks, loose brickwork, unstable mortar joints, and water ingress. At Sealine Roofing, we provide reliable and long-lasting chimney stack repairs in Stourport on Severn, restoring safety, stability, and full weather protection to your roof.
Whether your chimney stack is showing signs of age, leaning, or causing damp inside your home, our experts can diagnose the issue and carry out the correct repairs quickly and professionally.
Common Issues With Chimney Stacks
Chimney stacks can deteriorate for several reasons, especially on older properties. We frequently repair issues such as:
- Cracked or missing mortar (repointing required)
- Loose or spalling bricks caused by frost and water damage
- Leaning or unstable chimneys
- Damaged lead flashing leading to leaks
- Deteriorated chimney pots or cowls
- Internal damp and staining from water penetration
Ignoring these issues can lead to serious structural risks — chimney collapse, internal water damage, and expensive repairs. Early intervention is always the best approach.

Chimney Stack Repair FAQs
1. How do I know if my chimney stack is unsafe?
Leaning chimneys, loose bricks, missing mortar, and falling debris are all signs of instability. If you notice any of these, the chimney should be inspected immediately.
2. Can a chimney stack be repaired or does it need rebuilding?
Many chimneys can be repaired with repointing or brick replacement. However, if the structure is significantly damaged, partial or full rebuilding may be required. We’ll advise you after a detailed inspection.
3. What causes chimney stacks to deteriorate?
Weather exposure, frost, poor ventilation, water ingress, and general ageing can all weaken chimney brickwork and mortar.
4. Will repairing the chimney stop internal damp?
In most cases, yes. When leaks and structural issues are resolved, the internal damp usually dries out naturally. Additional damp-proofing may be recommended depending on the severity.
5. How long does chimney stack repair take?
Small repairs such as repointing can be done in a few hours. Larger rebuilds may take one to two days depending on complexity.
6. Do you offer guarantees on chimney stack repairs?
Yes, all workmanship is guaranteed. The length of the guarantee depends on the type of repair and materials used, which we’ll detail in your quote.
7. Can you work on tall or hard-to-reach chimneys?
Absolutely. We arrange safe access, including scaffolding where required, ensuring all work is carried out safely and professionally.
