Bespoke Leadwork in Northallerton & North Yorkshire
Specialist Lead Welding & Leadwork From an NVQ-Qualified, Lead Sheet Academy Trained Roofer.
Leadwork is where most roofs fail — and where most general roofers cut corners. It’s a specialist skill, not something you pick up on the side, which is why we’ve invested in ongoing training through the Lead Sheet Training Academy to keep our leadwork and lead welding in line with current Lead Sheet Association guidance.
Whether it’s a full re-roof or a single repair, badly detailed lead is one of the most common causes of leaks we’re called out to fix — so we take the time to get it right the first time.
Our Leadwork Services
Protecting coping stones, parapet walls and flat roofs from water ingress, backed by a 100-year manufacturer guarantee on materials.
Watertight seals around chimneys, dormers and roof junctions — the single most common point of failure on any roof, done properly.
Formed and welted to channel rainwater away cleanly, with correct falls and expansion allowances so they don’t crack or split over time.
Bespoke back gutters formed to fit, ensuring efficient drainage behind chimneys and abutments where standard flashing won’t do the job.
Dressed in stages into brick joints along chimneys and dormers, each step overlapping the one below to shed water down and away.
Formed to fit awkward junctions where roof planes meet a chimney or obstruction, preventing the standing water that causes most saddle failures.
Bespoke water hoppers made to match period detailing, a genuine like-for-like alternative to plastic or standard cast options.
Traditional rolled lead dormers, dressed over timber rolls with proper welted joints — done wrong, they split and fail within a couple of years; done right, they last decades.
Trade & Bespoke Fabrication
If you’re a roofer or builder rather than a homeowner, we also fabricate bespoke lead pieces to your own spec — back gutters, front aprons and other bespoke leadwork made to order, ready to collect or delivered to site.
