Serving East Lothian, Edinburgh & surrounding areas · 24hr emergency service available
Our services
Chimney stack repairs, re-pointing, stone replacement and rebuilds, carried out safely from scaffolding.
About this service
Chimney stacks are among the most exposed parts of any building. Failed pointing, cracked or decayed stone and loose copes can let water in and, over time, make a stack unsafe.
We repair, re-point and rebuild stone chimney stacks using traditional materials, replacing decayed stone to match the original. Work is carried out from suitable access, such as scaffolding, and we can work alongside your roofer where needed. We can also supply roofing services if required.
