CHIMNEY REPAIRS & LEADWORK NEWCASTLE
Your chimney is one of the most exposed parts of your roof, constantly subjected to wind, rain and changing weather conditions throughout the year. Over time, mortar joints can deteriorate, lead flashings can fail and brickwork can become unstable, allowing water to enter your property. At K L Smith Roofing Ltd, we provide professional chimney repairs and roof leadwork throughout Newcastle, restoring both the structural integrity and weatherproof performance of your roof.
With more than 40 years of roofing experience, our skilled team carries out everything from minor chimney repairs to complete lead flashing replacement. Every project is completed using proven roofing techniques and quality materials to provide reliable, long-lasting protection.
OUR CHIMNEY & LEADWORK SERVICES
We offer a comprehensive range of chimney and roof leadwork services designed to eliminate leaks, improve structural stability and extend the lifespan of your roofing system. Every repair begins with a thorough inspection to identify the underlying cause of the problem.
CHIMNEY REPAIRS
We repair damaged chimney stacks, replacing loose brickwork, repairing cracked masonry and restoring the structural condition of ageing chimneys before more significant problems develop.
LEAD FLASHING REPLACEMENT
Lead flashings form one of the most important weatherproof seals on your roof. We install and replace chimney flashings, step flashings and apron flashings to prevent water ingress around vulnerable roof junctions.
LEAD VALLEYS & ROOF LEADWORK
We install and repair lead valleys and other roof leadwork, providing durable weatherproof detailing that protects your roof while maintaining the traditional appearance of your property.
SPECIALIST CHIMNEY ROOFERS IN NEWCASTLE
Many roof leaks originate around chimney stacks rather than the main roof covering. Damaged lead flashings, cracked mortar joints and deteriorating brickwork can all allow water to enter your property unnoticed until internal damage becomes visible. Our experienced roofing specialists understand how chimney structures perform and provide targeted repairs that resolve the cause of the problem rather than simply treating the symptoms.
We provide chimney repairs and leadwork throughout Newcastle, Gateshead, Low Fell, Whickham, North Shields, Whitley Bay, South Shields, Bedlington, Blyth, Cramlington, Morpeth, Durham, Consett and the surrounding North East, delivering dependable workmanship for both domestic and commercial properties.
Traditional Leadwork Expertise
Lead remains one of the most reliable roofing materials available for protecting roof junctions. Our experienced roofers install and repair leadwork using proven techniques that deliver long-term weather resistance.
Protecting Your Roof From Water Ingress

FREQUENTLY ASKED CHIMNEY REPAIR QUESTIONS
Concerned about the condition of your chimney or roof leadwork? Here are some of the questions we're most frequently asked by customers across Newcastle.
How do I know if my chimney needs repairing?
Signs include cracked brickwork, loose mortar, damaged flashing, water stains around the chimney breast, visible leaning or loose chimney pots.
Why is lead flashing important?
Lead flashing creates a watertight seal where the chimney meets the roof, preventing rainwater from entering vulnerable roof junctions.
Can damaged lead flashing cause roof leaks?
Yes. Worn, split or poorly fitted lead flashing is one of the most common causes of roof leaks around chimney stacks.
Do you replace lead valleys as well as chimney flashing?
Yes. We install and repair lead valleys, chimney flashings and all forms of traditional roof leadwork.
Can chimney repairs prevent future roofing problems?
Absolutely. Repairing damaged brickwork and replacing defective flashing helps protect your roof structure while reducing the risk of costly internal water damage.
