Crucial Lead Flashing Replacement in Spilsby: Protecting Your Home from the Elements
Lead flashing is one of the unsung heroes of your roof, a vital component that works tirelessly to keep water out of your home. Here in Spilsby, and indeed across Lincolnshire, we see plenty of properties where failing leadwork is the root cause of damp patches, leaks, and much larger structural problems. Often found where different parts of your roof meet – around chimneys, skylights, dormer windows, or along adjoining walls – lead provides a flexible, long-lasting, and completely waterproof seal. But even this durable material can eventually crack, corrode, or lift over time due to weather, poor installation, or simply age. If you’re noticing signs of water ingress, especially after heavy rain, it’s highly probable your lead flashing needs urgent attention. Foster and Son Roofing Services are your local, professional team, ready to tackle any lead repair or replacement job with the precision and care it demands.

Who We Are
Clear Signs Your Spilsby Home Needs Lead Flashing Repairs
Identifying a problem with your lead flashing early can save you a significant amount of money and stress in the long run. Keep an eye out for these tell-tale signs around your property in Spilsby or the surrounding villages:
- Damp patches or water stains on ceilings or walls: This is the most obvious indicator that water is getting in, often directly related to failed flashing.
- Visible cracks or tears in the lead: Take a look from ground level or with binoculars if safe to do so. Lead should be smooth and intact.
- Displaced or lifting lead: Strong winds can lift lead, creating gaps for water to enter.
- Corrosion or white powdery residue: While lead is durable, it can corrode, especially in certain environments or if not installed correctly.
- Moss or debris build-up: This can trap moisture against the lead, accelerating its deterioration.
If you spot any of these issues, it’s time to call in the professionals. We offer free, no-obligation roof inspections to assess your leadwork and recommend the best course of action.
