Leadwork in Newcastle upon Tyne

Proper leadwork is essential for sealing vulnerable roof junctions against water penetration. We provide precision lead flashing, repairs, and full lead roofing services for chimneys and roof junctions across Newcastle.

When You Need Leadwork

Water is leaking around your chimney stack during heavy rainfall. Old lead flashing has cracked, warped, or pulled away from the masonry. You are installing a new roof and require craftsman-standard valley and abutment flashings. Existing leadwork shows signs of pitting or corrosion from coastal exposure.

How We Do It

We inspect the affected chimney or roof junction to assess the condition of the existing lead. We strip away damaged material and cut new lead sheet to precise architectural measurements. We dress and point the new lead into brickwork mortar joints to create a watertight seal. We inspect the finished installation to ensure it meets our strict workmanship standards.

What to Expect

Most lead flashing and chimney leadwork repairs are completed within a single day.
