Most roof leaks start where the roof meets a wall or a chimney.
Chimneys take the worst of the weather. The mortar joints wash out, the flashings lift, and rain runs down inside the stack and onto the ceiling below. Francis describes one recent chimney job in his own words: repointed the chimney with new code 4 lead flashing and storm-dried the chimney. That is the standard we work to.
We repoint the brickwork, renew the lead flashings, soakers and back gutters in code 4 lead, and treat the stack to keep water out of the brick. On re-roofs we fit new leadwork at every chimney and abutment as a matter of course, as on the Brighton re-roof in September 2026, where new lead also protects the parapet wall.
Chimney work in Woodingdean, re-roofs with new lead in Brighton, and leadwork listed on our vans: it is a regular part of what we do. All work is guaranteed and we are fully insured.

Dilyan K.September 2026
Whole roof replaced, joists included
They were very quick for inspection and doing the job, competitive on price and did a good job in replacing the whole roof including joists and patching the concrete on the side. They cleaned up the space after and were prompt with communication. My only gripe is that they did not reattach the existing netting to how it was before, but it was just left semi-covering the space. Overall I would recommend them. I will try to post updates on the roof in the following years as well.Read it on Google
