Southampton chimney repairs leadwork
Ever noticed a damp patch on the ceiling near your fireplace or tucked into a corner of the attic? In Southampton, our homes take a proper beating from the coastal wind and driving rain. Most homeowners we chat with don't realise their chimney is the most vulnerable part of the house until the water is already coming in. At Watertight Roofing, we’ve spent years climbing ladders across Southampton to fix weather-beaten stacks and failing leadwork. Whether you've got a period cottage in Botley or a modern semi in Hedge End, we're here to make sure your roof stays exactly what it says on our tin: watertight. It’s not just about slapping on some sealant; it’s about understanding how a chimney breathes and how lead moves.
Why Choose Us?
Expert leadwork stops leaks
Think of your leadwork as the primary defence for your roof. It's the 'seal' that bridges the gap between your tiles and the brickwork of your chimney. If it’s installed poorly, thermal movement—the way materials expand and contract in the sun and cold—will eventually cause it to crack or pull away. We don't take shortcuts with 'flash-band' or cheap alternatives. Our team uses high-quality Code 4 or Code 5 lead, employing traditional bossing and welding techniques to create a fit that lasts decades. From stepped flashings on a pitched roof to lead aprons and intricate lead valleys, we ensure every joint is secure. We even apply patination oil to prevent those unsightly white stains from running down your tiles, keeping your Southampton home looking sharp while staying dry.

Who We Are
Professional chimney repointing builds
Is the mortar between your chimney bricks looking a bit sandy or starting to crumble away? This is usually the first sign of trouble. Once that mortar perishes, water seeps into the structure, and that's when you start seeing internal damp or even loose bricks. We provide a full range of chimney maintenance, from simple repointing to complete chimney rebuilds if the structural integrity has been compromised. We’re also experts in flaunching—that’s the concrete 'cap' at the very top of your stack that holds the pots in place. If yours is cracked, it’s basically an open door for the rain. We’ll strip back the old, crumbly stuff and lay down a fresh, smooth bed of mortar to keep everything locked tight.

Safe chimney removal options
Many people in Southampton now have redundant chimneys that they no longer use for open fires or boilers. If a stack is just sitting there costing you money in repairs, chimney removal or capping might be the smartest move. We can safely take down a stack to below the roofline and tile over it so it looks like it was never there. Alternatively, if you want to keep the feature but stop the draughts and birds, we offer chimney capping and the installation of chimney cowls or bird guards. This keeps the stack ventilated—which is vital to prevent damp—while stopping Jackdaws from setting up home in your flue. It’s a cost-effective way to reduce your maintenance bill in the long run.
