Chimney Repairs in Hawkhurst
Hawkhurst's exposed hilltop position means chimneys here take more weathering than in sheltered parts of the Weald.
Chimney Repairs in Hawkhurst
Chimney stacks on the older cottages around the Moor and the Colonnade in Hawkhurst are often brick-built and sit higher above the roofline than on more modern housing, which leaves them more exposed to driving rain and wind. That exposure shows up as eroded pointing and cracked pots sooner than you'd expect elsewhere.
We check flashing and pointing together on these jobs, since a failure in one often follows shortly after the other on an exposed stack.
Hawkhurst's weatherboarded and tile-hung cottages typically have tall brick chimneys with clay pots. The village's higher elevation compared to surrounding valleys means greater weather exposure for roof and chimney alike.
Local knowledge
Common chimney repair jobs in Hawkhurst
01
Weather-worn pointing
The village's exposed position accelerates pointing wear on tall stacks, so repointing tends to come up more often here.
02
Pot and capping damage
Wind-driven rain can crack or dislodge pots and cappings, which we check and replace where needed.
03
Flashing around weatherboarding
Where a chimney meets a weatherboarded gable, flashing detail needs extra attention to stop water tracking behind the boards.
