Docking's exposed hilltop position and mix of traditional Norfolk flint and brick cottages make sound lead work essential for keeping roofs watertight through every season.
Docking sits higher than much of north-west Norfolk, and that altitude means wind-driven rain finds every weakness around chimney stacks, dormers and valley gutters. The village has a good number of older detached and semi-detached properties with original lead flashings that have often gone decades without attention — we regularly find cracked or lifting lead on rooftops here that is causing damp to track down internal walls.
We carry out full lead replacement and repair using Code 4 and Code 5 sheet lead to BS EN 12588, cutting and dressing it on site to match the original profiles. If your flashing is lifting away from the masonry, call us for a free lead work survey in Docking before the next wet spell makes the damage worse.
