I highly recommend Charlie’s roofing services. On a number of occasions recently he has squeezed in an emergency fix between jobs and gives practical and pragmatic advice for the older property in which we live. He is hardworking and efficient. No job too big or too small.
Chimney Repairs
Chimney repairs, assessed properly.
Repointing, flashing and general repairs to keep your chimney sound and watertight.
The service
One of the most common sources of a roof leak.
Chimneys take more weathering than the rest of the roof, and problems here often show up as leaks elsewhere in the house. We assess the chimney stack, flashing and pointing together, rather than treating them separately.
- Chimney repointing
- Flashing repair and replacement
- Chimney stack repairs
- Chimney removal and capping where appropriate

What customers say.
Can highly recommend Charlie and the team at MCG. Prompt response with great work, enhanced by being great vfm. Exactly what you require
Charlie was absolutely fantastic. On time, friendly, informative, diligent and neat.
Unfortunately he was sadly let down by the skip hire people otherwise Charlie would have left the whole site immaculate.
I would definitely use Charlie again.
