Our key differentiators

Clear advice from the start

We inspect the chimney before suggesting any repair. That means you get advice based on the stack's condition, not guesswork.

Repairs that suit older roofs

​We work on traditional roofing across Edinburgh, so we understand the kind of chimney issues older properties can develop. Our repairs are carried out with care for the surrounding roof structure.

Safe action when damage is severe

Some stacks can be repaired, but others become unsafe. We can remove dangerous chimney sections where needed and leave the roof properly made good.

Rendering on a chimney

Keep your chimney safe and weather-ready

Cracked mortar, loose pots and failing flashing can let water into your roof and turn a small issue into a bigger repair. We carry out chimney repairs that tackle the cause of the problem, from repointing weathered joints to rebuilding damaged stacks. Our team also handles lead flashing repairs and replacements, which matter when rain starts tracking in around the base of the chimney. 

 

In Edinburgh, older properties often need careful work that respects the roof around them as much as the chimney itself. We inspect the stack properly before recommending the right fix, so you know what needs attention and what can wait. Edinburgh Roof Company brings roofing experience to work that protects your home and helps your chimney stand firm in rough Scottish weather.

Repairs that match the condition of the stack

Some chimneys need fresh pointing to seal open joints, while others need more involved rebuilding because the brickwork has become unstable. At Edinburgh Roof Company, our rendering work can improve protection on exposed stacks where the outer surface has started to break down. 

 

A damaged or missing chimney pot can affect both safety and performance, so we replace pots carefully and ensure everything is securely fitted. We also install cowls where needed to reduce rain entry and improve chimney performance. Where access is difficult, we can use safe rope access methods to carry out this work efficiently, including chimney repairs and removals. When a stack is beyond repair, we can safely remove unsafe chimney stacks and make good the surrounding roof area.
