Chimney stacks on The Bourne's 1920s–1960s properties take more weather punishment than any other roof element. We repair, repoint and rebuild chimneys across The Bourne using the correct materials for your property age.
The Bourne's housing stock creates specific chimney challenges. Very high moss growth rate due to tree canopy and valley shade. Valley and gutter blockages every autumn. Concrete tile erosion on post-war properties. Flat roof garage additions needing replacement. On 1920s–1960s properties we carry lime mortar mixes as standard — critical for preventing spalling on older brickwork.
Mix of 1920s–30s detached properties and post-war semis in a wooded setting south of Farnham. Clay tile dominant on older stock, concrete on post-war. Heavy tree canopy throughout.
Very high moss growth rate due to tree canopy and valley shade. Valley and gutter blockages every autumn. Concrete tile erosion on post-war properties. Flat roof garage additions needing replacement.
The Bourne runs along a wooded valley south of Farnham. Heavy tree canopy creates significant leaf fall and persistent shade on north-facing slopes — highest moss growth rate of any Farnham neighbourhood.
The Bourne has the highest moss growth rate of any Farnham neighbourhood due to valley humidity and heavy deciduous tree canopy. Annual gutter and valley clearance is essential — twice yearly for heavily canopied plots.
We cover The Bourne (GU10) and all Farnham postcodes. Same-day surveys Monday to Saturday. Emergency call-outs 24/7. Call 0125 244 7622.

The Bourne's wooded valley setting creates the highest moss growth rate of any Farnham neighbourhood. The combination of valley humidity, north-facing slopes, and heavy deciduous canopy means roofs here can become significantly colonised within 3–4 years of the last treatment. For The Bourne properties, annual autumn gutter clearance and 4-yearly moss treatment is our minimum maintenance recommendation.

For Victorian and Edwardian properties in The Bourne — common in Hale, Upper Hale and the town centre — NHL lime mortar must be used. Hard cement mortars cause brickwork to crack. We always specify correctly.
Open or cracking mortar joints visible from ground level, damp patches on the chimney breast inside, or white salt deposits on external brickwork are all signs repointing is needed.
