8.5
“I recently had the roof lining, battens and tiles replaced by this company. My neighbour had a water leak into one of their bedrooms caused by the roof lining deteriorating. It was 60 years old, so had lasted quite well. I had a couple of dis-lodged tiles and on removal the battens were found to be in a bad state of repair. The work was carried out and completed in around a week. Apart from a couple of small snags ( which were corrected very quickly) everything seems to be ok. This has enhanced the look of the house and I am pleased with the result.”

Find Chimney Cowling Installation in London
Is your chimney letting in downdrafts or rain? Fitting a chimney cowl is the answer. A cowl sits on top of your chimney pot to:
- Keep out rain

What does chimney cowl installation involve?
Hire an experienced fitter and they'll take the following steps to fit a chimney cowl:
- Working at height (sometimes with scaffolding), your installer checks that the flue is suitable and the top is clear of debris
- A suitable cowl is selected (size, fuel type, and finish are all considerations)
- Cowl is fitted either by slipping into the flue or fixing with straps and adhesive (depending on the manufacturer guidelines)
- The fit-out is checked for safe mounting and correct ventilation
How much does it cost to install a chimney cowl?
Expect to pay between £215 and £471 , with an average cost of £314.

Do you need scaffolding to fit a chimney cowl?
You don’t always need scaffolding. For many single-storey or easily accessible roofs, a ladder and roof-access method might do the trick.
However, for taller properties or difficult to reach roofs, scaffolding is needed.
Tip: Make sure to ask your fitter ahead of time whether scaffolding is needed and whether the costs will be included in their quote.
Who will fit a chimney cowl?
Roofers and qualified chimney sweeps can help with a chimney cowling installation.
Hire using Checkatrade’s free directory and you’ll know your fitters will have the right experience.
Will a chimney cowl stop rain entering my flue?
Yes – one of the main perks of fitting a cowl is that it helps prevent rain and debris entering the chimney, which can lead to damp and odours.
