Frequently Asked Questions About Lead Flashing Services in Southampton

Why is lead flashing important for roofs in Southampton?

Lead flashing is vital for Southampton roofs because it creates watertight seals at vulnerable points like chimney bases, roof valleys, and around roof windows. Southampton's frequent rainfall and coastal humidity mean reliable flashing is essential to prevent water ingress, which can lead to damp, rot, and structural damage, particularly in older properties common in areas like Shirley and Portswood.

What are the signs that my lead flashing needs repair or replacement in Southampton?

Signs of failing lead flashing in Southampton include visible cracks or splits in the lead, slipped or loose flashing, moss growth around flashing areas, and damp patches or water leaks inside your property, especially after heavy rain. Coastal corrosion can also accelerate lead flashing deterioration. Regular inspections are recommended, particularly after storms.

What types of lead flashing services do Rightway Roofers offer in Southampton?

Rightway Roofers offers a comprehensive range of lead flashing services in Southampton, including:
