Leadwork & Flashing

Leadwork is an essential component of a weathertight roof. Properly installed lead flashing prevents water penetration at vulnerable points where the roof meets walls, chimneys, dormers, and other junctions. Aviator Roofing Ltd provides expert leadwork and flashing services across Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, Yorkshire and England.

Our leadwork services include chimney flashing (front apron, step and back flashing), lead valleys, dormer cheeks, soil vent pipe weathering, skylight flashing, and abutment flashing where roofs meet walls.

We use traditional sand-cast lead sheet and code 4 or code 5 milled lead to BS EN 12588 standards. Our experienced roofers are skilled in bossing and welding techniques to create long-lasting, watertight joints.

Faulty or deteriorated lead flashing is one of the most common causes of roof leaks. If you notice damp patches on internal walls near the roofline, it may be time to have your flashing inspected. Contact us for a professional assessment.
