Chimney Repairs & Repointing in Hornsea
A Hornsea chimney stack gets the full easterly straight off the water, and it shows: mortar joints on the seaward face are often scoured back to open gaps, pots rock in cracked flaunching, and the lead at the base has been lifted by wind more than once. Because the stack usually stands well above the ridge on the promenade villas, we scaffold properly, take down what is unsafe, rebuild in matching brick and repoint the rest, then flash it back into the roof so it is watertight again.

Chimney Repairs in Hornsea: local factors
A rebuilt stack only looks right if brick and mortar match what surrounds them, and on older, softer brickwork the mortar should be the weaker of the two, which rules out a hard cement mix. Removing a stack instead of rebuilding it can also need permission, especially within the conservation area; the planning authority here is East Riding of Yorkshire Council, so check with them before deciding.
