Chimney Repairs in Ashbourne Operating Across Derbyshire
Secure chimney repairs across Ashbourne and the Dales
Living in the Derbyshire Dales, we're all used to the weather throwing everything it's got at our homes. Your chimney stack often takes the brunt of it, standing tall against those biting winds and heavy rain. If you've noticed a bit of debris in your garden or a damp patch appearing near your fireplace, it's usually a sign that your chimney needs a bit of expert attention. At Better Choice Roofing & Cleaning, we've spent years helping homeowners in Ashbourne keep their chimney stacks safe, secure, and completely weather-tight.
Why Choose Us?
Protect your home from damp with expert repointing
Have you ever looked up at your chimney and noticed the mortar between the bricks looks a bit crumbly or missing? That's what we call mortar decay, and in a place like Derbyshire where the freeze-thaw cycle is a regular thing, it can quickly lead to 'spalling'—where the faces of the bricks actually start to flake off. We'll rake out that old, failed mortar and repoint it with high-quality materials that actually last. It’s one of those simple jobs that prevents water from seeping into your attic and causing a much bigger, more expensive headache down the line.

Who We Are
Fix leaking lead flashing before it causes trouble
Most of the 'roof leaks' we get called out to in Ashbourne aren't actually about the tiles at all; they're about the lead flashing. This is the waterproof seal where your chimney meets the roof. Over time, lead can crack or pull away from the brickwork, letting water sneak right into your home. Imagine sitting down for dinner only to see a water stain spreading across your ceiling—it’s a nightmare nobody wants. We'll inspect your flashing, repair any splits, or replace it entirely to make sure your roof stays bone dry.

Keep your chimney pots safe and steady
If you've ever felt a bit uneasy during a gale, wondering if your chimney pot is as secure as it should be, you're not alone. The mortar base at the top of your chimney, known as the 'flaunching', can crack over time. This leaves your pots loose and potentially dangerous. Our team can re-bed those pots into fresh mortar, ensuring they're rock solid. Whether you’ve got a traditional red-brick terrace or a stone cottage in the Dales, we'll make sure everything up top is safe for you and your neighbours.

0115 647 1479Professional chimney capping and bird guard fitting
Is your chimney currently out of use? An open, unused flue is basically an open door for rain and uninvited guests like birds. We frequently help Ashbourne residents by fitting bird guards or cowls to stop nesting and prevent those annoying downdraughts. If you don't plan on using the fire again, we can professionally cap the chimney to keep the weather out while still allowing the stack to breathe. It’s a great way to stop dampness from building up inside the flue during those cold Derbyshire winters.
