Why Choose Us?

What Exactly is Lead Flashing, and Why Does it Matter to Your Home?

Think of lead flashing as the waterproof sealant for the tricky bits on your roof. It's that soft, malleable metal strip you often see tucked around chimneys, in roof valleys (where two roof slopes meet), and against walls that extend above the roofline. Its job is crucial: it prevents water from seeping into your property where the main roofing materials can't form a perfect seal. Over time, lead can crack, lift, or corrode due to weathering, age, or poor installation. When this happens, even a tiny gap can lead to significant leaks inside your home or commercial property, causing costly damage to plaster, timbers, and insulation.

Who We Are

Spotting the Signs: When Your Lead Flashing Needs Expert Attention

You don't always need a major leak to know something's wrong. Keeping an eye out for these common signs can save you bigger problems down the line:

  • Water stains on ceilings or walls: Often directly below a chimney, dormer window, or where an extension joins the main house.
  • Cracked or lifted lead: You might spot this from the ground, or a professional inspection will reveal it. Lead should lie flat and form a tight seal.
  • Missing or slipped lead sections: Strong winds can lift and even detach pieces of lead.
  • Deteriorated mortar: If the pointing around your chimney or where the lead is bedded looks crumbly, water can get in.
  • Rust or corrosion on nearby components: While lead doesn't rust, nearby metal components might, indicating consistent water exposure.
    If you notice any of these, it's time for a professional roof repair.
