Professional leadwork repairs for Eton homes
High class roofing provides professional leadwork repairs to ensure your home in Eton remains watertight. Based in nearby Datchet and serving the Eton community, Jimmy Frankham and his team address critical failure points like perished chimney flashings, cracked lead valleys, and leaking box gutters. Whether your property is a historic Victorian terrace or a more modern build, we provide the technical expertise required to manage lead components effectively.
The importance of expertly dressed lead flashings
Lead is a cornerstone of traditional roofing, but its performance depends entirely on correct installation. We use high-quality Code 4 and Code 5 milled lead, which we expertly dress to fit the unique geometry of your roof. Properly formed step flashings at the junction of your chimney and roof are essential to stop water ingress. If your existing leadwork has become loose, cracked, or deformed due to thermal expansion, it allows moisture to penetrate your roof timbers and eventually damage your ceilings.

How we manage lead valleys and box gutters
Lead valleys and box gutters are common features on older properties in the Eton area, designed to channel large volumes of rainwater away from the roof structure. Over time, these can suffer from fatigue or splitting at the joints. We specialise in lead valley replacement and repairs, ensuring that your drainage system remains reliable during heavy rainfall. By applying industry-standard techniques to our leadwork, we provide a durable solution that stands up to the Thames Valley climate.

01256 639416Can your lead roof components be repaired instead of replaced?
Many customers ask if a full replacement is necessary when they discover a leak. In many instances, we can perform targeted leadwork repairs, such as re-dressing existing material, replacing sections of soakers, or installing new flashings without needing to strip the entire roof. We provide a transparent assessment of the condition of your leadwork, advising you on whether a repair is sufficient or if the material has reached the end of its useful life and requires a replacement to meet current building standards.
