Roofing service
Lead Work across Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Berkshire and Hertfordshire
Code specified lead flashings, valleys, chimneys, bays and parapets, formed and dressed on site.
Answer first. Lead is where most roofs leak and where most corners get cut. AM Roofing Services Ltd forms lead work to the correct code and bay length for the detail, with proper welts, clips, expansion allowance and chases raked and pointed. We cover chimney flashings, valleys, box gutters, bay roofs, dormer cheeks, parapets and abutments on both period and new build properties.
What the job includes
- Correct lead code and bay length for every detail, not a one size approach
- Chimney flashings, soakers, back gutters and aprons
- Lead lined valleys and box gutters on period and new build roofs
- Bay roofs, dormer cheeks, parapets and wall abutments
- Chases raked out and repointed, never surface sealed
- Patination oil applied to protect the finish

Questions about lead work
Why does my chimney flashing keep leaking?
The most common causes are lead that was surface sealed rather than chased in, undersized lead code, and missing soakers behind the flashing. All three need the detail forming again properly rather than resealing.
Can you replace stolen lead?
Yes, and we can fit security markings and alternative code specified materials where theft is a recurring problem in the area.
Do you work on listed and conservation properties?
Yes. Traditional lead detailing on period property is core work for us, and we document methods and materials for conservation officers where that is required.
