What leadwork & flashing in Read actually involves

Our typical Read scope

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.

What's included

  • Code 4–5 lead supplied and dressed on site
  • Step flashings around chimney stacks
  • Workmanship guarantee on every joint
  • Lead valleys, aprons and saddles
  • Patination oil applied to prevent staining
