Why Choose Us?

Understanding Lead Flashing: Your Roof's Waterproof Seal

So, what exactly is lead flashing? Simply put, it's a crucial component of your roof, typically found where the roof meets a wall, chimney, skylight, or in valleys where two roof sections join. Lead is incredibly durable and malleable, allowing it to be expertly shaped to create a watertight seal, directing rainwater away from vulnerable points. Over time, however, lead can degrade, crack, lift, or even be stolen, leaving your property exposed. Common areas requiring attention include chimney stack flashing, lead soakers within roof tiles, and lead aprons on dormer windows. Our expert roofers understand the nuances of traditional leadwork, ensuring a lasting and effective repair.

Who We Are

Signs Your Lead Flashing Needs Professional Attention

Catching lead flashing issues early can save you significant time, money, and hassle down the line. Keep an eye out for these common indicators:

  • Water Stains: Damp patches on ceilings or walls, especially near chimneys, internal walls, or loft areas, are a clear sign of water ingress.
  • Damaged Lead: Visible cracks, tears, or lifting in the lead itself.
  • Missing Sections: Strong winds can sometimes dislodge or peel back lead flashing.
  • Discoloured Masonry: Dark streaks or efflorescence on brickwork below leadwork.
  • Draughts: Unexplained cold spots near rooflines or chimneys.
    If you spot any of these problems, don't delay. Our team provides professional roof repair solutions that prioritise the integrity of your property.
