Lead Flashing Repairs & Replacement
Where your chimney meets the roof is a prime spot for unexpected leaks. Lead flashing bridges this gap with a flexible, watertight barrier designed to shift with seasonal temperature changes. Over time, heavy storms, sun exposure, and plain old wear and tear can crack, loosen, or warp the metal. If you are spotting fresh damp stains on walls or ceilings upstairs, faulty flashing is often the main culprit. Catching these small cracks early stops water from rotting your roof timbers or causing hidden mould.
How We Can Help
-
Complete Lead Replacement: We install fresh, durable, high-grade lead built to withstand decades of harsh weather.
-
Targeted Repairs: Fast fixes for split lead and loose seals to save you money and extend the life of your current setup.
-
Custom Step & Apron Flashing: Hand-shaped lead work tailored specifically for tricky angles around chimneys, dormers, and skylights.
We mix time-tested leadwork skills with top-tier modern sealants to keep your home warm, dry, and fully protected from the elements.
Chimney Stack Rebuilding, Repairs & Removal
Your chimney stack takes the brunt of every storm, and when bricks loosen, mortar cracks, or the structure starts to lean, it turns into a real safety hazard for anyone below. Whether you need a bit of brickwork pieced back together or a stack taken down entirely, we provide practical solutions tailored to your property.
How We Can Help
-
Expert Stack Rebuilding: We safely dismantle unstable masonry and rebuild it using mortar and colour-matched bricks that look like they have always been there.
-
Targeted Repairs: From swapping out frost-damaged bricks to installing fresh pots and cowls, we catch minor issues before they turn into costly emergencies.
-
Safe Stack Removal: If your fireplace is out of commission and you want to eliminate ongoing maintenance, we professionally remove the chimney and patch the roof up tight.
Every job is safely scaffolded, properly weather-sealed, and built to last through whatever the weather brings.
Chimney Flaunching Repairs
Sitting right at the top of your chimney, the flaunching is a sloped bed of mortar designed to hold your pots firm and channel rainwater safely away from the brickwork. Exposed to severe weather 365 days a year, this mortar cap is usually the first part of a chimney to crack and break down. Once it fails, rain pours directly into the stack, causing damp upstairs, loose chimney pots, and crumbling bricks.
How We Fix It
-
Clearing Damaged Mortar: We strip back broken, weathered concrete and remove loose debris to create a solid foundation.
-
Weatherproof Mortar Blends: We lay down high-strength, water-resistant mortar specifically mixed to resist freezing winter cold and summer heat.
-
Hand-Shaped Gradient: We hand-trowel a clean, steep slope to make sure rainwater drains off quickly without pooling.
Repairing cracked flaunching keeps your chimney pots locked in place and stops hidden water damage before it reaches your living room.
Chimney Pot & Cowl Installation
A cracked pot is a serious falling hazard, and an open flue is an invitation for rain, nesting birds, and icy downdrafts. Whether frost has split an old terracotta pot or a sudden draft is blowing smoke back into your living room, updating your pot and cowl keeps your chimney drawing properly and your home safe.
How We Can Help
-
Pot Replacement: We fit durable terracotta or modern pots that blend seamlessly with the style of your home.
-
Bird Guards & Rain Caps: We install secure caps and mesh covers to keep rain out and prevent birds from nesting in your flue.
-
Anti-Downdraft Cowls: Specialised cowls designed to boost airflow and stop wind from pushing smoke back into your house.

Chimney Waterproofing & Rendering
Bricks naturally act like sponges during heavy rain. When water soaks into your chimney and freezes, it causes bricks to chip, mortar to rot, and damp patches to show up inside your home. Our waterproofing and rendering services build a tough, weather-resistant coat over your stack to keep moisture out for good.
How We Protect Your Masonry
-
Clear Waterproof Coating: If you want to keep your original brickwork visible, we spray on a high-grade, breathable repellent. Water beads right off the surface while trapped interior moisture safely evaporates out.
-
Full Exterior Rendering: For older or heavily worn brickwork, a fresh render coat gives your chimney a clean, modern look. We apply hard-wearing sand-and-cement or modern monocouche renders to create a smooth, completely watertight seal.
Keep your home warm and dry with tailored masonry protection from the team at Quality Mark Roofing Ltd.

Very good service and competitive rates. Quality Mark Roofing Ltd came out to have a look at the problem and were very clear about what area of our roof needed to be replaced with new tiling, and how much it would cost. We are very happy with the work carried out as the guttering is no longer leaking.
