Leadwork in Sunderland — the detail that keeps roofs dry
Lead is the unsung hero of a good roof. It seals all the awkward junctions — around chimneys, in valleys, against walls and over bay windows — where water loves to sneak in. Done well, leadwork lasts a lifetime. Done badly, it’s the first thing to leak.
Leadworks done properly
Our roofers use the correct lead codes and traditional techniques to form flashings, soakers and valleys that stay watertight for decades.
- Correct lead codes for every application
- Chimney flashing, soakers and step flashing
