Brick Chimney Pointing
Re-pointing the brickwork by raking out the loose brick mortar and replacing with like for like lime mortar or cement will strengthen the chimney for another generation. As part of the brick chimney pointing work, Scarlett Fireplaces replace crumbling Essex stock clay bricks where required to ensure a long-lasting safe brick chimney structure.
Brick chimney stacks have a hard life as exposed structures above roof level. Prevailing wind directions and local weather patterns can erode parts of a chimney while other sections are sheltered from the extremes of winter. This phenomenon can lead to a chimney leaning to one side because the other side of the stack is kept warmer and so temperature expansion and contraction causes the structure to move slowly in a certain direction.
