Protecting Your Hunstanton Home: The Vital Role of Lead Flashing
Living by the sea in Hunstanton, your home faces unique challenges from the elements. While often overlooked, the lead flashing on your roof is one of its most critical defences against water ingress. This malleable metal forms a waterproof seal around chimneys, skylights, valleys, and wall abutments – any point where the roof meets another structure. Over time, exposure to strong winds, driving rain, and fluctuating temperatures common in coastal Norfolk can cause lead to crack, lift, or corrode. When this happens, even a small compromise in your flashing can lead to significant and costly water damage inside your property. At Foster and Son Roofing Services, we understand these local conditions intimately and specialise in expert lead flashing replacement to keep your home safe and dry.

Who We Are
Is Your Hunstanton Roof Showing Signs of Failing Leadwork?
It's easy to miss issues with your roof, but there are often tell-tale signs that your lead flashing might need attention. Look out for damp patches or discolouration on your ceilings or walls, especially after heavy rain – these are often the first indicators of a roof leak. Outside, you might see the lead looking warped, buckled, cracked, or even missing sections around your chimney, dormer windows, or in the valleys of your roof. Sometimes, you might spot dark streaks on your brickwork below the flashing, indicating water is running where it shouldn't. Don't ignore these warnings. Getting a professional assessment from Foster and Son Roofing Services early can prevent minor repairs from escalating into major roof replacement projects.
