Where the roof meets something else
Flashing is the material used where a roof meets a wall, chimney or other surface. When it fails, water can get in.
We repair and replace leadwork and flashing as part of our roofing work.

Where lead and flashing are used
- Around chimneysLead seals the join between the stack and the roof.
- At valleysWhere two roof slopes meet, water runs down a lined channel.
- Where roofs meet wallsFlashing stops water running behind the wall.
- Flat roof edgesEdges and upstands need proper detailing to stay watertight.
Signs it needs attention
- Lifted or split leadLead that has lifted or cracked no longer seals the joint.
- Damp near a chimney or wallStaining inside, next to a joint outside, points to failed flashing.
- Gaps and loose edgesMovement and age open small gaps that let water in.
