Gislingham is a quiet mid-Suffolk village of timber-framed cottages and traditional farmhouses where chimney stacks are part of the character — and where neglecting them causes serious problems.
Older properties in Gislingham often have tall, slender stacks with clay pots that have been repaired piecemeal over decades. When lime mortar fails in stacks like these, water tracks straight down into the chimney breast and can go unnoticed until plaster starts bubbling. We rebuild stacks carefully to preserve the look of the original, sourcing handmade bricks where needed to match traditional Suffolk bond.
Because Gislingham sits off the main routes between Eye and Finningham, we know it's easy to be overlooked by larger contractors. We visit without call-out charges and give honest, no-pressure advice on whether a full rebuild or partial repair is the right call for your property.
