Chimney Repointing built for West Chiltington homes
West Chiltington is an affluent village of large detached homes, period cottages and tree-lined private roads.
Around West Chiltington the Low Weald brings mature oaks, heavy clay soils and older timber-framed and Horsham stone roofs. Leaf fall blocks gutters every autumn and shaded roof slopes grow moss quickly, so regular maintenance and careful, like-for-like repairs make a big difference.
We rake joints back to a sound depth, then repoint with a mortar matched to your bricks. Older and listed homes get breathable lime mortar, which lets the masonry dry out and avoids damaging soft bricks.
Chimney Repointing materials & options
We use NHL lime mortar for period chimneys and colour-matched sand and cement for modern stacks, replacing spalled bricks as we go.
