Why Your Lead Flashing Matters: Protecting Your Property from Leaks
Lead flashing isn't just a traditional roofing feature; it's a crucial waterproof barrier. Strategically installed around junctions on your roof – such as chimneys, skylights, dormer windows, and where roof sections meet (valleys and gables) – it directs water away from vulnerable points. Without properly installed or maintained lead, water can easily seep into your property, leading to damp ceilings, damaged timbers, and even structural issues. We work with various types of lead, including step flashing and lead aprons, ensuring every detail is perfect for maximum protection.

Who We Are
Spotting the Signs: Does Your Lead Flashing Need Attention?
Knowing what to look for can save you a lot of hassle. Keep an eye out for these common indicators that your lead flashing might need professional repair or replacement:
- Damp patches or staining on interior walls or ceilings, particularly near a chimney or a roof junction.
- Visible cracks, tears, or buckling in the lead itself from ground level or an upper window.
- Corrosion or discolouration on the lead, suggesting it's deteriorating.
- Missing sections of lead flashing after high winds or heavy storms.
- Loose or lifting lead, which can allow water to penetrate underneath.
If you notice any of these signs in your Ashby-de-la-Zouch property, it's time to call in the experts.

01332 529271Common Causes of Lead Flashing Damage & Our Solutions
Lead flashing, while incredibly durable, can suffer damage over time. Common culprits include:
- Age and weathering: Prolonged exposure to sun, rain, and frost can cause lead to expand and contract, leading to cracking or splitting.
- Poor installation: Incorrectly fitted lead can lift, buckle, or create weak points for water ingress.
- Storm damage: High winds can lift or tear lead flashing, particularly around exposed areas like chimney stacks.
- Corrosion: In rare cases, chemical reactions from certain building materials can corrode lead.
Our team has over 20 years of hands-on experience identifying these issues and applying the right fix, from minor re-seals and patch repairs to full lead flashing replacements, including re-flaunching chimney stacks and re-bedding ridge tiles where necessary.
