Aether Roofing Solutions provides expert chimney repair services across Uttoxeter and the wider ST14 postcode area. Uttoxeter is a historic East Staffordshire market town with a mix of older period properties around the town centre and High Street — many Georgian and Victorian with ornate chimney stacks — alongside 1960s to 1980s private housing on the estates spreading toward Bramshall and Stramshall. The surrounding rural villages of Marchington, Checkley and Denstone feature older farmhouses and cottages with substantial stone and brick chimney stacks that have endured centuries of exposure. The open, rolling countryside means properties face significant wind exposure that accelerates mortar deterioration far quicker than in more sheltered towns. Many chimney stacks across Uttoxeter town centre and the surrounding villages have not been repointed for decades, and the original mortar is now crumbling away — allowing rainwater to penetrate the brickwork and cause damp on internal chimney breasts.
We cover Uttoxeter and the surrounding communities, including Bramshall, Marchington, Checkley, Denstone and Stramshall. Whether you have crumbling mortar joints on a Georgian townhouse, a cracked chimney pot on a 1970s estate property, or a leaning stack that needs urgent attention on a rural farmhouse after storm damage, our fully insured team will diagnose the problem accurately, provide a written fixed-price quote, and complete the repair to the highest standard — using materials appropriate to the age and character of your Uttoxeter property.
Complete chimney repair, maintenance and removal — all carried out by our own directly employed team.
We rake out deteriorated mortar joints and repoint your chimney stack using materials matched to the age of your Uttoxeter property. Lime mortar is used on older stone and brick chimneys — particularly the period farmhouses and cottages found in Marchington, Checkley and Denstone — to maintain breathability and prevent trapped moisture damage.
Failed lead flashing is one of the most common causes of chimney leaks in Uttoxeter. We strip and replace deteriorated flashing with new code-5 lead, properly dressed into the brickwork and sealed to prevent water ingress at the roof junction.
From partial rebuilds to full structural repairs, we restore unstable, leaning or storm-damaged chimney stacks across Uttoxeter. The exposed countryside around ST14 means stacks take a battering from prevailing winds — all work is carried out from scaffolding and complies with building regulations where required.
Cracked, broken or missing chimney pots are replaced with matching or appropriate alternatives. We bed new pots securely in mortar and fit a flaunching to shed rainwater away from the stack — particularly important given the wind exposure across the Uttoxeter area.
Chimney cowls prevent rainwater, birds and debris from entering disused flues — a common issue in Uttoxeter properties where fireplaces have been sealed off. We supply and fit a range of cowls suited to active and capped chimneys.
Where a chimney stack is beyond economical repair or no longer required, we carry out safe, controlled removal down to roof level — weatherproofing the opening and making good the roof tiles, lead work and internal structure.

“Our farmhouse chimney in Bramshall had been losing mortar for years and we finally got Aether out to repoint the full stack. They used lime mortar that matched the existing stonework beautifully — you can barely tell where the new pointing ends and the old begins. Really careful, tidy work and the price was exactly as quoted. Highly recommended for anyone with an older property.”
“A storm blew our chimney pot clean off and cracked the flaunching. Called Aether on a Sunday morning and they had someone out the same day to make it safe. Came back in the week and fitted a new pot, replaced the flaunching and checked the rest of the stack while they were up there. Brilliant emergency response — couldn’t have asked for more.”
“We had persistent damp on the chimney breast in our bedroom and two other roofers couldn’t find the cause. Aether came out, inspected the stack properly and identified that the lead flashing had completely failed on the back of the chimney. They stripped the old lead, re-dressed new code-5 lead and chased it into the brickwork. Not a drop of damp since. Professional, thorough and very fairly priced.”
