Lead Flashing Repair and Roof Lead Work
Lead flashing repair, chimney flashing and roof junction repairs across Durham, Sunderland, Newcastle and the North East.
Lead flashing protects the vulnerable joins around chimneys, walls, valleys and roof edges. When it cracks, lifts or pulls away, water can track inside even if the tiles nearby look fine.
Fixing the joins where leaks start
Lead flashing repair focuses on the detail that lets water through: the chimney, wall join, valley, abutment or edge where the roof covering meets another surface.
