Alupro Roofing Specialists offer chimney reconstruction, block or brick chimney repairs, partial chimney rebuilds, roofing repair and chimney rebuilds, and chimney rebuilds.
 

Cracking, water leaking, element exposure, usage, time, and lack of maintenance can render your chimney structurally weak, resulting in the need for chimney repairs or chimney rebuild.

At Alupro Roofing we specialise in chimney rebuilding including set-up scaffolding, tear down, and disposal, as well as reconstruction of your existing chimney.

The most common chimney problems are:
 

Partial chimney rebuilds: A small chimney, no scaffolding required, or only the top few courses of a large chimney.
 

Roof line-up chimney rebuilds: Substantial mortar or brick deterioration will eliminate the possibility of a chimney restoration job. The structure has to be torn down to the flashing area at the roof line, and then the chimney rebuild begins.
 

Chimney rebuilds: The blocks and other materials that make up your home are protected by the roof and eaves system. The chimney is above the roof and is exposed to rain, wind, and frost (general Irish weather). Masonry materials deteriorate very quickly when they absorb moisture and are exposed to the elements, causing undue stress, integrity loss, and brittle.
 

We provide a chimney rebuild service where the chimney is leaning, has severe mortar deterioration, or when severe brick or block spalling has occurred from ground level up. In most cases, the fireplace, hearth, and smoke chamber do not have to be removed.

A chimney crown is the top element of a chimney rebuild and allows maximum protection for the construction beneath by preventing the need for fireplace chimney repairs and chimney rebuilding. It protects the top of the chimney and hangs over the chimney’s edge usually about 4 inches. The mortar used in most chimney crowns is not designed for years of weather without cracking, chipping, or deteriorating. The situations that allow water to penetrate the chimney.
 

We also offer chimney painting and valley pointing services in all areas.

xing natural slates or tiled roofs should only be carried out by competent roofers/slaters as it is a skilled craft and requires an experienced hand.
