What is Lead Flashing and Why Does It Matter for Your March Home?
Lead flashing isn't just a decorative feature; it's a vital waterproof barrier on your roof. You'll typically find it where your roof meets a chimney, a wall, or around dormer windows and skylights. It's designed to create a weather-tight seal, directing rainwater away from vulnerable junctions and off your roof. Over time, or due to poor initial installation, lead can crack, lift, or become damaged, creating direct pathways for water to seep into your property. Protecting your home from water ingress is our top priority, and correctly installed leadwork is fundamental to that.

Clear Signs Your Lead Flashing Needs Replacing
Spotting the problem early can save you significant repair costs down the line. Keep an eye out for these tell-tale signs around your property in March:
- Water Stains: The most obvious sign – damp patches or discolouration on ceilings or walls, especially near chimneys or roof intersections.
- Cracked or Crumbling Lead: Visibly damaged leadwork that looks brittle, split, or has noticeable cracks.
- Lifting or Loose Flashing: Sections of lead that have come away from the chimney or wall, leaving a gap.
- Deteriorating Mortar: If the mortar holding the lead in place is crumbling, it can allow water in.
- Rust or Discolouration on Chimney: This can indicate prolonged water exposure due to failed flashing.
If you spot any of these issues, don't delay. Give us a call, and our experienced team will quickly assess the situation.
