Over the years we have completed chimney repairs, chimney lining, stove installations and sweeping work across many towns in East Kent, including Canterbury, Whitstable, Herne Bay, Dover, Deal, Sandwich and the surrounding villages. Each property presents different challenges — from period cottages requiring careful brickwork repairs, to modern homes needing efficient flue systems for new stove installations.
This page shows a selection of recent projects carried out by Allchimneys Kent, demonstrating the range of chimney services we provide and the practical solutions used to keep chimneys safe, weather‑tight and working efficiently.
A selection of recent domestic chimney jobs completed by Allchimneys Kent. These projects demonstrate the standard of our work across Whitstable, Herne Bay, Minster, Birchington and surrounding areas — from chimney lining and repairs to sweeping, pots & cowls and wood‑burning stove installation.
Specialist rope-access and steeplejack chimney work — often completed without scaffolding, helping reduce project costs.
Following a chimney survey and smoke draw test, signs of flue leakage were identified before a new stove installation. The chimney was relined with a stainless steel flexible liner to ensure safe operation and allow the flue to be swept correctly through the appliance in future.
Chimney pointing and brickwork repairs were carried out to stabilise the stack and restore weather resistance, using safe rope access methods and our bespoke ridge platform to complete the work without the need for scaffold.
Rotary power chimney sweeping and blockage removal carried out as part of a sweep and safety check to restore airflow and keep the appliance operating safely.
New chimney pots with fresh flaunching and installation of a vented chimney cap and cowl with bird-guard mesh.
The redundant fireplace was removed, the opening widened and a new slate hearth installed. A new chimney lining and register plate were fitted before the wood burning stove was assembled on site and the appliance commissioned with operating instructions given to the customer to ensure safe operation.
Specialist Expertise: In addition to domestic chimney servicing, Allchimneys Kent provides specialist high-access inspections and structural chimney repairs using rope-access and traditional steeplejack techniques.
