Chimney Repairs and Leadwork

Gorilla Roofing Cheshire provides professional chimney repairs and leadwork services across Cheshire, helping homeowners protect their roofs from leaks, weather damage and long-term structural issues. Whether your chimney needs repointing, rebuilding or removal, or your roof requires new lead flashing or valley work, we deliver dependable solutions built to last.

Chimneys and leadwork are often some of the most vulnerable areas of a roof. Over time, exposure to wind, rain and temperature changes can lead to cracked mortar, loose brickwork, deteriorated flashing and water ingress. Our team provides detailed inspections and high-quality repairs to keep your roof watertight and safe.

Chimney Repointing

Mortar joints on chimneys naturally deteriorate over time due to constant exposure to the elements. Crumbling mortar can allow water into the chimney stack, loosen brickwork and increase the risk of leaks or structural instability.

We carry out chimney repointing across Cheshire to restore the strength and weather resistance of the chimney. By carefully removing worn mortar and replacing it with fresh pointing, we help extend the life of the chimney and improve the appearance of the roof.

Chimney Repairs and Rebuilds

Where a chimney has suffered more significant wear or storm damage, more extensive repairs may be required. We repair damaged chimney stacks, replace loose or damaged bricks, repair flaunching and address issues affecting the stability of the structure.

If a chimney is beyond economical repair, we also provide partial or full chimney rebuilds, ensuring the stack is structurally sound and correctly integrated with the roof.

Chimney Removal

In some cases, an old or redundant chimney may need to be reduced or removed for safety, maintenance or renovation reasons. We carry out chimney removals carefully and safely, making good the roof covering afterwards so the roof remains secure and weatherproof.

Our team can advise whether repair, reduction or full removal is the most suitable option based on the chimney’s condition and your property requirements.

Lead Flashing Repairs and Replacement

Lead flashing is essential for sealing vulnerable areas of the roof, particularly around chimneys, roof junctions, walls and abutments. If flashing becomes cracked, lifted or worn, water can quickly find its way into the roof space and property.

We carry out lead flashing repairs and replacement across Cheshire, ensuring a durable watertight seal and a neat finish. All leadwork is completed with attention to detail and in line with good roofing practice.

Lead Valleys and Roof Junctions

Lead valleys and roof junctions handle significant water flow and need to be installed correctly to prevent leaks and standing water. Worn, split or poorly installed lead valleys can become a common source of roof leaks.

We repair and replace lead valleys, box gutters and roof junction detailing, helping improve drainage and protect your property from water ingress.

High-Quality Leadwork to the Highest Standard

Lead is one of the most reliable roofing materials when installed properly. It offers excellent durability, flexibility and weather resistance, making it ideal for flashing, valleys and specialist detailing.

Our leadwork services cover both traditional and modern roofing projects, ensuring the finished work performs well and complements the roof aesthetically.

Signs Your Chimney or Leadwork May Need Attention

Common signs of chimney or leadwork issues include:

• Water stains near chimney breasts or ceilings
• Loose chimney pots or cracked mortar
• Missing flashing or visible gaps
• Damp patches after heavy rain
• Lead lifting or splitting at roof junctions

Addressing these issues early can help avoid larger roofing problems and more costly repairs.
