The Roofing People offer Lead Flashing Repairs in South Kirkby, South Elmsall, Pontefract, Wakefield, Doncaster and throughout South Yorkshire. Flashing refers to thin pieces of impervious material, mostly lead, installed to prevent the passage of water into a structure from a joint or as part of a weather resistant barrier (WRB) system. Unfortunately lead is only as good as the structure it is protecting, The Roofing People are a premier roof repair company offering expert Lead Flashing repairs and replacement. Common failures with lead flashing are cement fillets cracking, incorrect lead weight installed, incorrect lead lengths, poor fixings into parapet walls, poor mortar work and poor soaker installation. In addition to the yearly wear and tear, lead has been a theft target for a substantial period of time. We have extensive experience in finding the correct lead weight and length as well as bossing/welding techniques for all types of Lead Flashing repair projects. If you have been subjected to lead theft we may be able to industrially glue your new lead work in, making it significantly harder for any would be thief.
