Leadwork in Oxfordshire
Lead is what keeps water out at the awkward junctions of a roof. We form and fit lead flashings, valleys, soakers and back gutters to code, dressed by hand for a lasting seal.

Overview
Leadwork across Oxford & the whole of Oxfordshire
Wherever a roof meets a wall, a chimney or another roof, lead does the work of keeping water out. Good leadwork is a craft: the right code of lead, the right lap, and clean dressing so it sheds water and lasts.
We replace tired, cracked and stolen leadwork, and form new flashings, valleys and soakers for re-roofs and repairs. It is one of the details that separates a roof that lasts from one that leaks.

Pricing
What affects the cost of leadwork in Oxfordshire
Every roof is different, so we price each job on what it actually needs. The main things that affect the cost are:
- The size and pitch of the roof, and how much access or scaffold the job needs
- The materials chosen, from budget concrete tile to natural slate or leadwork
- The condition of the timbers, battens and felt underneath once we open up
- Whether it is a repair, a partial recover, or a full strip and re-roof
