Chimney Repairs & Rebuilds
Traditional Craftsmanship for Safe, Weatherproof Chimneys – Fully Repaired or Rebuilt by Experts
At Pete Nicholls Roofing, we provide professional chimney repair and rebuilding services across Devon, Cornwall and the South Hams. With over 30 years of roofing experience, we understand that chimneys are more than just decorative features – they’re essential structural components that require regular maintenance and, sometimes, complete restoration.
Whether your chimney is leaking, leaning, crumbling, or simply in need of repointing, we offer a full range of solutions to restore its strength, safety, and weather resistance.
Our Chimney Services Include:

Full Chimney Rebuilds
If your chimney stack is beyond repair – due to age, storm damage, or ongoing deterioration – we offer complete chimney rebuilding, matching the original style and brickwork where required. We’ll take it down safely and rebuild it from the roofline up using modern techniques or traditional materials, depending on the property.

Chimney Repairs
From minor cracks to damaged pots or loose bricks, we carry out all types of chimney repair work to prolong the life of your structure and prevent water ingress or collapse.

Chimney Removal
No longer using your chimney? We also provide safe chimney stack removals, with proper sealing and weatherproofing of the roof afterwards.
