Chimneys are a defining feature of many period properties, adding both architectural charm and functional value. However, exposure to the elements, shifting foundations, and deteriorating mortar can lead to cracks, leaning, and structural weaknesses, posing serious safety risks. At London Restore, we specialise in chimney restoration and repair, ensuring your chimney remains a secure, striking, and long-lasting feature of your home.
