Expert Lead Flashing and Roof Leadwork in Epsom

Lead is one of the most durable and reliable roofing materials available, but it must be installed correctly to perform at its best. When you choose Kevington Roofing for your step flashing or lead valley replacement, you are investing in the long-term health of your home.Properly dressed and pointed leadwork expands and contracts naturally with seasonal temperature changes, meaning it will not crack during cold Surrey winters or warp in the summer heat. This flexibility provides unmatched water ingress protection at critical weak points, such as where a pitched roof meets a vertical wall.Beyond structural safety, fresh heritage leadwork instantly improves the kerb appeal of older properties. Upgrading your flashing not only secures your home against damp but also restores the clean, traditional finish of your roofline.

It is not always obvious when your lead flashing has failed until water starts appearing inside your home. However, there are a few common warning signs to look out for. If you notice damp patches on your ceilings or walls, particularly near a chimney breast or directly below a roof valley, worn flashing is often the culprit.From the outside, you might see that the lead has slipped out of the brickwork mortar joints, looks visibly split, or has blown away during a recent storm. If the mortar around your chimney repointing looks crumbly and degraded, the step flashing beneath it is likely compromised as well.Because leadwork is often high up and difficult to inspect safely, we highly recommend booking a professional drone roof survey to check the condition of your roof without the need for ladders or scaffolding.
