Why Choose Us?
Understanding the Importance of Quality Roof Leadwork
Leadwork is an ancient, yet highly effective, roofing material known for its incredible durability and flexibility. It’s primarily used to create a watertight seal in vulnerable areas of your roof where different sections meet or penetrate the roofline. Think of spots like around your chimney stack, in roof valleys, where extensions join the main building, or around dormer windows and skylights. Without expertly installed and maintained lead flashing, these areas become prime entry points for water, leading to leaks, rot, and mould inside your home or business. Our team possesses the traditional skills and modern techniques required to ensure your leadwork offers robust, long-lasting protection.

Who We Are
Common Leadwork Issues We Expertly Resolve
Over time, leadwork can suffer from various issues due to weathering, age, or poor initial installation. You might notice your lead flashing has cracked, lifted, or is showing signs of 'creeping' – where it expands and contracts, eventually leading to splits. Mortar in chimney flaunching can fail, allowing water behind the lead apron. We frequently address problems like leaking valleys where the lead has perished, or gaps around chimney pots that cause water to stream down the inside of your stack. Our experienced roofing team offers comprehensive inspections to identify the root cause of any lead-related leaks, providing effective and durable repairs that truly solve the problem, rather than just patching it up.

Our range of leadwork services covers everything from minor repairs to complete renewals. We specialise in meticulous lead flashing installations for chimneys, creating snug, watertight seals that stand the test of time. This includes step flashing where your roof meets a wall, and lead aprons at the base of chimneys. We also expertly install and repair lead soakers within slate or tile roofs, protecting vulnerable junctions. For older properties in areas like Ripley or Heanor, we’re adept at traditional lead valley lining, replacing perished materials with new, robust lead that will guide rainwater effectively.
