Chimney Repointing in Oxfordshire

When the mortar between chimney bricks washes out, water gets into the stack and down into the house. Repointing rakes out the old mortar and replaces it with a fresh, weatherproof joint.

Overview

Chimney Repointing across Oxford & the whole of Oxfordshire

Chimney mortar takes decades of driving rain and eventually softens, cracks and falls out. Once the joints are open, water soaks into the brickwork and can show as damp in the rooms below.

We rake out the failed mortar and repoint the stack with the right mix for the brick, restoring a clean, watertight joint. It is a straightforward job that heads off a lot of damp problems.

Pricing

What affects the cost of chimney repointing in Oxfordshire

Every roof is different, so we price each job on what it actually needs. The main things that affect the cost are:

  • The size and pitch of the roof, and how much access or scaffold the job needs
  • The materials chosen, from budget concrete tile to natural slate or leadwork
  • The condition of the timbers, battens and felt underneath once we open up
  • Whether it is a repair, a partial recover, or a full strip and re-roof
