Lead Flashing Repair Services in Kinver

Here is the full scope of what we cover for lead flashing repair across Kinver and DY7.

Chimney Flashing Repair

Step flashings, cover flashings and apron flashings around chimney stacks are the most common lead failure on Kinver properties. We repair or replace any failed element, with all lead dressed to BS 6915:2016 and secured in properly cut chases.

Step & Cover Flashings

Step flashings interleave with tiles or slates up an abutment wall; cover flashings lap over and are wedged into a brick chase. Both must be installed in sections no longer than 1.5m. We see many Kinver properties where a previous contractor used a single piece — which always fails.

Valley Lead Replacement

Valley lead carries a large volume of rainwater and must be Code 5 minimum, correctly sized and lapped. Cracked or split valley lead on Kinver roofs is a significant source of water ingress. We strip the covering either side, replace the lead in properly lapped sections and re-dress correctly.

Mortar Fillet Removal

Mortar fillets are used instead of proper lead flashing on many Kinver properties — a cost-cutting measure that fails within 5 to 15 years. We cut out the mortar, cut proper chases into the brickwork and install lead flashings permanently.

Apron & Soaker Flashings

Apron flashings at the front of chimney stacks and soakers interlaced with slates or tiles are often missing entirely on older Kinver properties. We install these to the correct dimensions for the roof pitch and covering material.

Parapet Gutter Re-Lining

Parapet gutters on older Kinver properties are typically lined with Code 5 or Code 6 lead. When this fails, water sits against the wall and causes serious damp. We re-line to the correct falls and dimensions with properly formed drips and upstands.

Frequently Asked Questions — Lead Flashing Repair in Kinver

How long does lead flashing last in Kinver? +

Quality lead flashing installed to BS 6915:2016 has a design life of 60 to 100 years. The majority of failures we attend to across Kinver and the DY7 postcode area are not failures of the lead itself — they are failures of poor original installation. Lead in sections longer than 1.5m without expansion joints cracks as it expands and contracts. Mortar fillets used instead of real lead fail within years.

How much does lead flashing repair cost in Kinver? +

A chimney flashing repair on a standard Kinver property typically ranges from £150 to £400 depending on the extent. Full re-leading of a chimney stack is typically £350 to £700. We provide a fixed written price after a free survey so you know exactly what you are paying before we start.

Is it the flashing causing my chimney leak in Kinver? +

Not always. Chimney leaks on Kinver properties can come from failed flashing, cracked mortar joints in the stack, a defective pot, or a failed parge coat. We survey all of these at the same visit and give you a clear diagnosis before any work begins.

Can you repair or does the flashing need replacing? +

Small cracks can sometimes be repaired. But if the flashing on your Kinver property is over 40 years old, extensively cracked, or was poorly installed in the first place, full replacement is more cost-effective than repeated repairs that will fail again within a few years. We advise honestly at the survey.
