Leadwork specialists in Chichester

Leadworks installation involves fitting, repairing or replacing lead components used to protect roofs and masonry from water ingress.

This type of work is commonly found on older properties but is also used on modern buildings where long service life and flexibility are required.

A leadworks installation service in Chichester can assess detailing, exposure and roof design before carrying out the work.

Types of leadworks installation

Lead is used in several areas of a building to manage water and allow for movement. Common leadwork installations include:

  • Lead flashing around chimneys
  • Step and cover flashing
  • Valley gutters
  • Lead soakers
  • Apron flashing
  • Parapet and box gutters
  • Dormer and roof abutment detailing

The correct thickness and detailing will depend on location, exposure and building design.

A leadworks installer in Chichester can confirm which specification is suitable for your roof.

Where leadworks are commonly used

Lead is often chosen for areas that experience regular movement or water flow. Typical locations include:

  • Chimney stacks and abutments
  • Roof-to-wall junctions
  • Valleys and gutters
  • Parapet walls
  • Dormer windows
  • Historic and traditional buildings

In heritage properties, leadwork is often preferred due to its compatibility with traditional materials.

Why correct lead detailing matters

Poorly installed leadwork can split, lift or fail prematurely. Correct detailing allows the lead to expand and contract safely while directing water away from vulnerable areas.
