It’s really important to catch chimney issues early to avoid bigger problems down the line. Keep an eye out for tell-tale signs like damp patches or stains on ceilings or walls near the chimney breast – these often point to a leaky chimney. You might also spot crumbling mortar joints, loose bricks, or a chimney stack that looks a bit wonky or leans to one side. If you notice bits of masonry or mortar falling onto your roof or into the garden, that’s a clear sign of an unstable chimney. Any of these signals mean it’s time to get a professional in for a look.

Here at Carlyle Roofing & Building Construction Ltd, we take on all sorts of chimney repairs for homeowners and businesses across Llanidloes, Powys, and the wider Mid Wales area. We commonly carry out chimney repointing, which means replacing old, worn-out mortar between the bricks to stop water getting in and restore the chimney's strength. We also fix or replace damaged lead flashing, the crucial lead seals around the base of your chimney where it meets the roof, to prevent leaks. From minor crack fixes to more substantial brickwork repairs, we’ve got it covered.

While we always try to repair where we can, sometimes a chimney is just too far gone. A full chimney rebuild becomes necessary if the stack has major structural damage, like severe leaning, large cracks, or extensive frost damage that has made the bricks unsafe. If the chimney is really unstable or poses a safety risk, especially after a storm, a rebuild is usually the safest and most sensible option. We’ll carefully assess your chimney’s condition and give you an honest recommendation on whether a repair or a full chimney rebuild is the right path.

Absolutely, yes. Storm damage to chimneys is a common issue in Mid Wales, and it can leave your property vulnerable. Whether a storm has loosened bricks, ripped off lead flashing, or even brought down part of your chimney stack, we offer rapid-response emergency roofing and chimney repair services. We'll quickly make the area safe, prevent further water ingress, and then plan the necessary repairs to get your chimney back in top condition. Don't hesitate to call us straight away if you've experienced storm damage.

If your chimney is no longer used, perhaps you've switched to a different heating system or just want more space, removing it can be a good option. We offer safe and controlled chimney removal services, whether it’s just the stack above the roofline or the entire structure down to the ground floor. When we remove a chimney, we make sure to properly 'make good' the roof where it stood, often integrating new roofing materials to match the existing roof seamlessly. We also cap off any remaining flues to prevent damp and debris from getting in.
