Bury St Edmunds has some of the most characterful housing stock in Suffolk — and keeping the chimney stacks on those older properties structurally sound takes careful, experienced work.
From the Georgian townhouses around Angel Hill and Northgate Street to the Edwardian semis in the Moreton Hall and Westgate areas, Bury St Edmunds has a wide mix of period homes, many still with original chimney stacks. These older stacks are frequently built with lime mortar that has softened and eroded over decades, leading to leaning or bowing brickwork that becomes a genuine safety hazard — particularly on taller stacks above three-storey properties in the town centre.
We rebuild chimney stacks in Bury St Edmunds to a proper standard, using matching brick and lime-compatible mortar where the surrounding masonry calls for it. New lead flashing is cut and dressed into the roof slope, and flaunching is laid to key the pots firmly in place. If your stack looks suspect, call us to arrange a free inspection before winter sets in.
