Where lead flashings earns its keep locally
Chimney stacks, valleys between slope slopes, abutments to brickwork, bay-window apron flashings. We reach Esher in around 5 km from our Hampton base, so material delivery and survey scheduling are straightforward here.
What goes wrong with lead flashings here
- Splits at bay-roof aprons from thermal movement on long pieces
- Mortar pointing failing above stepped flashings
- Cheap flashband used in place of properly specified lead
Our approach: We use Code 4 minimum, lap pieces to allow movement, and chase flashings into a proper mortar joint rather than relying on mastic alone.
