Chimneys wear over time. The brickwork weathers, the pointing breaks down, the flashing loosens and the pots get knocked about. Catching these problems early is what stops them getting worse, and it keeps the property in good order. Abode Home Improvements carries out chimney work across Marple and the surrounding areas.
Some jobs are small, others are larger. Repairs, repointing, leadwork and general attention all fall within what we do. Before suggesting anything, we look at the chimney itself and work out which parts need doing. No two properties are the same, so each job is planned around the condition and build of the chimney in front of us.
Whether the work is a minor fix or something bigger, we aim for careful workmanship and a neat result. Roofing and chimney jobs depend on detail, and that matters most where the chimney runs into the roof.
Lead sits in plenty of roofs, and it does a lot of its work around chimneys, roof junctions, valleys and anywhere one part of a roof meets another. Once lead cracks, wears thin or gets damaged, water can find its way in at those weak spots and the problem spreads.
We repair and replace leadwork so those areas stay protected. We begin by checking the lead and the roof around it. If the damage is limited, we fix the affected sections. If the lead is worn throughout, we replace it. Joints, edges and the points where lead meets roof coverings all get careful attention so the finish is secure and tidy.
You might need leadwork as part of a wider roofing job, or you might have spotted something wrong near the chimney or a roof junction. Either way, tell us what you’re seeing and we’ll talk through what’s needed and what your options are.
Lead flashing around chimneys helps seal the junction between the chimney and roof and directs rainwater away.
Leadwork can be used where different roof sections meet, helping protect these vulnerable areas from water ingress.
Lead is used around certain roof valleys to help channel rainwater safely away from the roof.
Lead flashing at roof-to-wall junctions helps create a weather-resistant seal where the roof meets another structure.
Damaged, cracked or deteriorated lead sections can be repaired where appropriate.

Whether the trouble is damaged brickwork, tired pointing, leadwork or general repairs to the chimney, we’ll talk it through, look at what the job involves and set out your options.
A chimney left alone can develop problems quietly. Looking after it regularly is part of looking after the roof and the house as a whole. Routine checks can pick up cracked brickwork, failing pointing, worn flashing or materials that have worked loose, before any of them turn into a bigger bill.
Keeping chimney brickwork, pointing and flashing in good condition can help reduce the risk of rainwater entering your property.
Regular maintenance can help address damage caused by wind, rain, frost and changing weather conditions.
Routine checks can highlight cracked brickwork, loose materials or worn areas before they develop into larger issues.
Dealing with smaller problems early may help prevent the need for more extensive chimney repairs later.
A well-maintained chimney can help keep the overall appearance of your roof and property looking neat and cared for.
We begin by looking over the chimney and discussing any problems you have noticed, such as damaged brickwork, worn pointing or water ingress.
We check the visible areas of the chimney, including the brickwork, mortar joints, flashing and chimney pot, to identify areas that may need attention.
Once we understand the condition of the chimney, we explain the work required and discuss the most suitable approach for your property.
We carry out the agreed chimney work, whether it involves repointing, brickwork repairs, leadwork, flashing repairs or other maintenance.
Particular attention is given to the areas around the chimney and roof junction to ensure the work is completed neatly.
