Lead Work in Washington

Lead is the traditional gold standard for weatherproofing roof junctions, chimneys, and valleys. Our skilled roofers shape and install leadwork that keeps water out permanently while maintaining a neat, professional finish.

When You Need Lead Work

Water is leaking around your chimney stack or where your roof meets a brick wall. Existing lead flashing has cracked, slipped, or pulled away from the masonry. Your roof valleys are showing holes or severe corrosion. You are renovating an older property and need traditional lead detailing reinstated.

How We Do It

We inspect the affected flashings, valleys, or gullies to identify the source of water penetration. We safely remove old, degraded leadwork and clear out any damaged mortar joints. We cut, dress, and fit new code-compliant lead sheets secured properly into brickwork chases. We point up all chases with weather-resistant mortar for a secure seal.

What to Expect

Most lead repairs and flashing replacements are completed within a single day.
