Chimney repairs explained
Damp near a chimney does not identify one failed component by itself. Adam checks the visible masonry, the stepped lead flashing and the tiles or slates meeting the stack before explaining the roof repair. The soakers beneath the covering need to be considered with the flashing you can see.
Stormshield's evidenced leadwork service supports that junction work, and the job record includes a formed lead slate around a separate flue pipe. Your quote distinguishes a chimney roof junction from a flue penetration and describes the actual detail involved. It does not treat every stain near a chimney as a reason to replace the stack.
Your chimney junction quote describes the lead and the surrounding roof work. Adam identifies the affected side of your stack, the covering to be lifted and the soakers and stepped cover flashing included in the work. The surrounding membrane, battens and tiles deserve inspection once access is available.
Adam photographs the roof findings and puts the proposed work in writing, so the edge of the repair is clear. Stormshield's named lead slate flue job is useful evidence of formed leadwork, but it is a different detail from chimney flashing. Keeping those parts distinct helps you understand exactly what is being priced on your own roof.
Before pricing your chimney work, Adam connects each proposed repair to a photographed finding. A lifted flashing edge, a damaged tile beside the stack and a masonry defect are separate observations, even if they affect the same area of your home. Your written quote identifies the work Stormshield proposes at roof level and explains any additional investigation.
Leadwork installation and repair are carried out by our roofers, with photographs of lead slates and roof junction work in our project galleries. Your decision can therefore start with named components and the inspected condition rather than a general claim that the entire chimney needs rebuilding.

The communications with Adam were excellent. The work was arranged quickly and carried out by Ben to a high standard. Would heartily recommend this company.

Your roofing questions answered
Why is my roof leaking around the chimney?
The roof junction needs inspection. Adam checks visible lead flashing, the surrounding covering and masonry before identifying the proposed repair.
Can chimney flashing be repaired?
Leadwork repair is work our fully insured roofers carry out. The quote identifies the flashing and any adjoining soakers or covering that need work.
Do you rebuild entire chimneys?
The evidence supports roof and leadwork repairs. Adam establishes the scope of wider masonry work before including it in your quote.
Is a lead slate the same as chimney flashing?
No. The recorded lead slate was formed around a flue pipe. A chimney roof junction has its own flashing and soaker detail.
Will you inspect before quoting?
Yes. Adam quotes with photographs and a written explanation of the roof findings.
What guarantee comes with the work?
A 10-year workmanship guarantee on all work. Stormshield is fully insured, and you receive daily progress updates with photos and videos.
