Find Chimney Cowling Installation in Lyme Regis

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
  • Limit cold drafts escaping into your home
  • Stop backflow of smoke
  • Help with ventilation

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

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?

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.
