A chimney breast leak can cause serious issues inside your home if it’s not fixed quickly. Damp patches, wall staining, and even structural problems often start with a small leak in the chimney. In London, where many houses have older chimneys, this is a common problem that should never be ignored.
Water marks or damp areas on interior walls
Wallpaper or paint peeling near the chimney breast
A musty smell in rooms connected to the chimney
Crumbling mortar or visible cracks outside on the stack
Most chimney leaks are caused by:
Broken flashing or poor sealing
Cracked brickwork or deteriorated pointing
Damaged chimney pots or missing caps
Roof drainage problems leading to water pooling around the chimney
A leak left untreated can quickly spread and cause costly damage. That’s why it’s important to rely on experts who can identify the source and repair it properly.
