Chimneys are among the most exposed parts of any property, enduring the worst of the British weather year after year. If your chimney in Staffordshire & Cheshire is showing signs of deterioration — crumbling mortar, loose bricks, damaged flaunching or damp patches inside — ArcLine Roofing can help.
We provide comprehensive chimney repair and maintenance services across Staffordshire & Cheshire and Staffordshire, from simple repointing to complete stack rebuilds. Our experienced roofers work safely at height and deliver lasting repairs that protect your property for years to come.
Chimney repointing is one of our most requested services in Staffordshire & Cheshire. Over time, mortar joints degrade due to weathering, freeze-thaw cycles and age. Deteriorated pointing allows water to penetrate the chimney stack, causing damp problems inside your home and potentially destabilising the structure if left too long.
Flaunching — the cement cap around the chimney pots — is another common failure point. Cracked or missing flaunching allows rainwater to soak into the chimney stack, running down inside the flue and causing damp patches on chimney breasts. We strip and re-flaunch chimneys using appropriate mortar mixes that are designed to last.
For chimneys that are no longer in use, we offer professional capping and cowl installation to prevent rainwater entry, bird nesting and draughts — while maintaining adequate ventilation to avoid condensation problems in your Staffordshire & Cheshire property. This is one of the most cost-effective ways to eliminate chimney-related damp.
If your chimney stack is beyond economical repair, our team can carry out a full rebuild using matching bricks and quality materials. We source reclaimed bricks where needed to match the character of older Staffordshire & Cheshire properties. We also handle chimney removal for properties where the stack is no longer needed and is causing structural concerns.
Many homeowners in Staffordshire & Cheshire don't realise their chimney is the source of damp problems until they've spent money on internal decoration that keeps getting ruined. If you have persistent damp around your chimney breast, the most likely causes are failed flaunching, deteriorated pointing, or lead flashing failure — all of which we fix.
All chimney work includes proper lead flashing installation around the chimney base to ensure a watertight seal with your roof covering. We use Code 4 and Code 5 lead sheet installed to Lead Sheet Association standards — not cement or silicone patches that fail within a few years.
Safety is paramount with chimney work. We use proper scaffolding access for all chimney repairs, ensuring our team can work safely and deliver quality results. Scaffolding costs are always included in our quotation — no surprise extras.

❌ Damp patches appearing on the chimney breast inside the house
✅ Usually caused by failed flaunching, degraded pointing or failed lead flashings. We inspect the chimney stack and fix the source — not just the symptom.
❌ Crumbling mortar and loose bricks on the chimney stack
✅ We repoint the stack using appropriate mortar, and replace any loose or damaged bricks. For badly deteriorated stacks, we carry out a full rebuild.
❌ Birds nesting in unused chimney flues
✅ We install ventilated chimney cowls or caps that keep birds and rain out while maintaining airflow to prevent condensation.
❌ Chimney pots loose or leaning
✅ We re-flaunch the chimney pots on a solid mortar bed and re-point the surrounding area. If the pots are damaged, we replace them with matching alternatives.
❌ Previous chimney repairs using cement render that's now cracking
✅ Cement render traps moisture inside the chimney stack. We remove the render and repoint with breathable lime or appropriate mortar.
