Ben came by recommendation. He came out to our leaking roof within a few hours of the call and worked quickly and efficiently to fix previous shoddy workmanship. He was extremely reliable, easy to talk to and his pricing was very reasonable! I would highly recommend BAR Roofing!
Ben was extremely reliable and helpful when he came to inspect my roof. I had been told I needed a reroof by a different contractor who just wanted money but Ben found the issue and resolved it efficiently with no problems.

Frequently asked questions about chimney repairs
Why is my chimney leaning or cracking?
Weather damage, poor maintenance, or weakened mortar joints can cause chimneys to lean or crack. It’s important to address these issues quickly to prevent collapse.
Can a chimney be removed or capped off?
Yes. We can remove unused chimneys or safely cap them to prevent water ingress and draughts. This is often done during loft conversions or roof renewals.
How often should chimneys be repointed?
Most chimneys need repointing every 20–30 years, depending on exposure to weather. Crumbling mortar or moss growth are signs it’s time to repoint.
