Protect chimneys, walls, dormers, and valleys from water ingress.
Leadwork is used where long-term weathering matters.
Existing flashing is inspected before the right fix is recommended.
The visible symptom is not always the complete fault. These are the details that help define a clear, practical scope for this particular type of roofing work.
Lead can split, pull away, or move when pieces are incorrectly sized or fixed, leaving a route for wind-driven rain.
The way flashing is secured into masonry and overlapped with neighbouring pieces is checked before repair is proposed.
Tiles, slates, valleys, dormers, and chimney masonry are reviewed so a nearby defect is not mistaken for failed leadwork.
A sound section may be dressed or repaired where the defect is small and the surrounding detail is correct. Replacement is more reliable where lead is split, poorly lapped, repeatedly patched, or installed in pieces that cannot accommodate movement.
