Chimney stacks on Runfold's 1970s–1990s properties take more weather punishment than any other roof element. We repair, repoint and rebuild chimneys across Runfold using the correct materials for your property age.
Runfold's housing stock creates specific chimney challenges. Concrete interlocking tile nail sickness on 1970s–80s stock. UPVC fascia cracking. Flat roof failures on extension additions. Mortar failure on exposed ridge sections. On 1970s–1990s properties we carry lime mortar mixes as standard — critical for preventing spalling on older brickwork.

Runfold's position on the greensand ridge south-east of Farnham gives properties here more weather exposure than sheltered valley locations. The sandy substrate also means foundation movement is slightly more prevalent than on clay or chalk — a subtle contributor to ridge mortar cracking that we see on some older Runfold properties. Exposed south-west facing elevations need more frequent ridge inspection than sheltered properties.

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.
