Chimney repairs
Chimney repairs - new lead work
Chimney overhaul - new lead detail as follows
The chimney was leaking due to the old zinc soakers being perished and the lead back gutter was old and split.
We stripped the back gutter, soakers and slates from around the chimney.
A new Code-4 lead apron flashing was fitted to the bottom of the chimney, then new code-4 lead soakers were fitted at each slate course.
Next the step flashing was fitted using code-4 lead along with the new pre-fabricated back gutter
the next stage was to complete the rendering and once dry the chimney was treated with Thompson's water-seal for added protection against the weather
