Cumbernauld's chimneys take their own kind of weather: 1960s-70s new town housing reaching the end of its original roof life flat-roofed maisonette sections alongside pitched tile roofs That's usually what decides whether a stack needs repointing, a flashing repair, or a full rebuild. Repointing a chimney stack typically costs three hundred to nine hundred pounds. A full rebuild of a damaged stack, or replacing lead flashing around the base, runs higher depending on scaffolding access and stack condition. We check pointing, stonework and flashing together, because a chimney leak is often the flashing, not the stone itself.
