Local context — leadwork in Beaconsfield
Leadwork is our biggest USP and the kind of work that's hardest to find done properly in Beaconsfield. Conservation-area properties around Beaconsfield Old Town need handmade clay peg-tile and code 5 lead — substitute materials get refused at planning, which is why we keep proper stock on the van. We work to Lead Sheet Association guidance on every job — code 4 for cover flashings, code 5 for valleys and abutments, code 6+ for bay and dormer roofs — and we weld on site rather than relying on mastic.
We work across HP9 with easy access from M40 Junction 2 and A40.

Local knowledge counts. We know the housing stock in Beaconsfield — what the original roof detailing looks like, what tends to fail, and which materials match best. That means a more reliable repair, a longer-lasting reroof and a quote you can trust.
Frequently asked — Leadwork in Beaconsfield
Why does my chimney flashing leak?+
Most leaks on Beaconsfield chimneys come from old mortar fillets, fatigued lead or missing soakers — not the bricks. Properly dressed and welded code 4 or 5 lead is the fix.
Do you weld lead on site?+
Yes — full on-site lead welding for bay roofs, dormers, box gutters and bespoke flashings across Beaconsfield. It's a traditional craft and our biggest USP.
What code of lead do you use?+
Code 4 for most flashings, Code 5 for valleys and abutments, Code 6+ for bay/dormer roofs. We use the right code for the job — no shortcuts.
Do you fit lead trays on replacement windows?+
Yes — every time we install or replace a dormer or bay where the window meets a flat surface, a proper bossed lead tray with cover flashing is essential.
Can you re-line my bay-window roof in lead?+
Yes — code 6 lead bay roofs are bread-and-butter work for us in Beaconsfield. We strip the failed covering, replace the timber deck where needed and lay new lead with proper rolls, drips and welts.
