Leadwork & Flashing in Burnley Holiday Let Owners
Holiday lets can't afford void weeks — turnaround dates matter as much as the repair itself.
How the leadwork & flashing job runs for holiday let owners
We plan the visit to sit between confirmed changeovers, sheet the property carefully, and leave the outdoor space in a lettable state at the end of every day.
Typical duration: 1–3 days depending on detail — bay roofs typically 2 days, single flashing replacements often a single day.

The leadwork & flashing work itself
Lead is the difference between a roof that lasts 50 years and one that leaks at every junction. We dress lead flashings around chimneys and abutments, form valleys, aprons and step flashings, and re-cover lead bay-window roofs in heritage code 5 lead with rolled joints — exactly the way they were originally built.
