Lead Work & Flashing Services
At Beewise Roofing, we specialise in expert lead work and flashing services to keep your roof watertight and secure. Lead flashing is a vital component of your roof’s weatherproofing system, designed to prevent leaks and protect vulnerable areas, such as roof joints, chimneys, valleys, and around skylights. With over 25 years of experience, our team provides high-quality, durable lead solutions for both residential and commercial properties across Hampshire and West Sussex.
What is Lead Work & Flashing?
Lead flashing is a type of metalwork used to seal joints in a roof, chimney, or walls to prevent water ingress. It is especially effective in areas where two different roofing surfaces meet, as well as around penetrations like chimneys, vents, and dormers. Lead is an ideal material for flashing due to its flexibility, durability, and resistance to corrosion.
Our lead work services include:
- Lead Flashing Installation
We install lead flashing around chimneys, roof valleys, skylights, and other vulnerable roof areas to ensure a watertight seal. Proper installation is crucial to prevent leaks and protect your property from water damage. - Lead Flashing Repairs
Over time, lead flashing can become damaged due to weathering, corrosion, or physical impact. Our team is highly skilled in repairing and replacing damaged lead flashing to restore its effectiveness. - Lead Work for Roof Valleys
Roof valleys are particularly prone to water damage, as they channel rainwater off the roof. Our lead work services ensure that valleys are sealed securely and protected from leaks. - Chimney Flashing
The flashing around chimneys is often the first place to show signs of wear and tear. We provide expert chimney flashing repairs and installations to maintain your roof’s integrity and keep your home dry. - Dormer & Roof Penetration Flashing
We specialise in installing and repairing flashing around dormers, vents, and other roof penetrations. This ensures these areas are properly sealed, preventing any moisture from entering your property. - Lead Welding and Cutting
Our experienced roofers use precise welding and cutting techniques to create custom lead flashing solutions tailored to your property’s specific needs.
