Chimneys & leadwork in Rottingdean

Chimney repairs in Rottingdean.

Old flint and brick cottages in Rottingdean village have chimneys that need careful repointing and repair, while the newer homes around Saltdean and Ovingdean often have stacks with cracked flaunching or tired flashings after years of salt wind.

We repoint and rebuild chimneys, fit new pots and caps and renew lead flashings. In the conservation area we'll match what's there, and we can remove unused stacks on newer homes.

Our roof was in a terrible state - 25 years of patches and cheap repairs. Paul picked up my call straight away and was very clear about what they offered and what price ranges would be involved. … The end-result was great.

Goldhawk Roofing were reliable, responsive, prompt, tidy and friendly. … The guys did a complete survey providing photos so we could see the problem that needed repairing. So a good experience and happy to recommend.

Paul’s communication throughout the process was excellent. Him and his team worked quickly and efficiently removing our whole roof and replacing it. All the guttering, chimneys and flat roofs were also made good. Overall we would highly recommend Goldhawk Roofing!!

Chimneys & leadwork in Rottingdean: questions

Can you remove a chimney I no longer use?

Yes. We can take an unused stack down below the roof line and slate or tile over it, so there's one less thing to maintain. If you want the chimney breast inside removed too, that needs proper support, and we'll talk you through it.

Why is my chimney breast damp?

Usually it's water getting in at the top or at the flashings: a cracked cap or flaunching, worn pointing or a failed lead flashing. We'll find the cause and fix it.

Do I need scaffolding for chimney work?

Most chimney work needs scaffolding or a chimney scaffold to do it safely. We'll include it in your estimate.
