Local context — leadwork in Old Windsor
Leadwork is our biggest USP and the kind of work that's hardest to find done properly in Old Windsor. Old Windsor sits inside the Windsor Great Park setting area — Royal Borough conservation officer coordinates with the Crown Estate on any visible-elevation work close to park boundary. 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 SL4 with easy access from A308 and Straight Road.

Frequently asked — Leadwork in Old Windsor
Why does my chimney flashing leak?+
Most leaks on Old Windsor 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 Old Windsor. 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.
Can you re-line my bay-window roof in lead?+
Yes — code 6 lead bay roofs are bread-and-butter work for us in Old Windsor. We strip the failed covering, replace the timber deck where needed and lay new lead with proper rolls, drips and welts.
Do you do lead-lined valleys?+
Yes — continuous code 5 lead valleys with proper undercloak and step-flashing where the valley meets the wall. Far more reliable than the GRP or fibre alternatives.
