Costessey's mix of interwar semis, postwar estates and older cottages along the Wensum valley means chimney stacks here see everything from crumbling lime mortar to frost-damaged brickwork that needs rebuilding properly.
The older properties on Townhouse Road and around New Costessey often have original clay-pot stacks that have been patched over the years rather than dealt with at the root. Where mortar has failed or a stack is leaning, a full rebuild from a sound course is the only lasting fix - repointing over cracked brickwork just delays the problem.
We work regularly across Costessey and can carry out a free chimney survey before any work begins. All rebuilds use materials matched to the existing brickwork where possible, and we leave the flaunching and capping properly finished so water cannot track back in.
