Chimney Repair in Tamworth
Repointing, Flashing & Stack Repairs — Fixed Prices

Chimney Repointing

We remove deteriorated mortar and repoint chimney stacks using lime or cement mortar matched to the original. Essential for Tamworth properties where decades of weather exposure have eroded joints, allowing water penetration into the stack and chimney breast below.

Chimney Flashing Repair

Lead flashing around the chimney base is one of the most common sources of roof leaks. We strip failed flashings and install new code-5 lead stepped and back-gutter flashings, properly dressed into raked-out mortar joints for a watertight seal.

Chimney Stack Repair

We repair cracked, spalling and frost-damaged chimney bricks, rebuild corbelling and replace damaged sections of stack. Scaffolding is erected safely and all work is carried out by our own experienced team.

Chimney Pot Replacement

Cracked, loose or missing chimney pots are a common issue on Tamworth properties. We supply and fit new clay or decorative pots, bed them on a fresh flaunching mortar and ensure they are secure against wind uplift.

Chimney Cowl Installation

Chimney cowls prevent rain, birds and debris from entering unused flues while maintaining ventilation. We fit a range of cowl types including anti-downdraught, bird guard and rain caps to suit your requirements.

Chimney Removal

Where chimneys are no longer needed — particularly on properties converting to gas or electric heating — we safely remove chimney stacks down to roof level, weatherproof the opening and make good the roof tiles and internal breast.

“We had mortar crumbling out of the chimney stack on our 1930s semi in Glascote and could see daylight through the joints from the loft. Aether came out the same week, put scaffolding up and repointed the entire stack beautifully. Matched the mortar colour perfectly and even replaced the flaunching around the pots. Really impressed with how tidy and professional the lads were.”

“A chimney pot came off during high winds and landed in the front garden — terrifying! Called Aether and they were out in Wilnecote within two hours. Made everything safe that evening and came back to fit a new pot and replace the lead flashing which had also lifted. Can’t thank them enough for the fast response. Brilliant service start to finish.”

“We’d had persistent damp on the bedroom chimney breast for years — two other roofers just painted over it. Aether diagnosed the problem as failed flashing and eroded mortar joints letting rain soak through. They repointed the stack and fitted new lead flashings. The damp has completely gone. Honest, knowledgeable and fairly priced.”
