Leadwork Specialists in Batley Operating Across Kirklees
Expert Leadwork Specialists in Batley
Ever looked up at your roof and wondered what's actually keeping the rain out where the tiles meet the chimney or the walls? If you're living in Batley or around the Kirklees area, you'll know that our West Yorkshire weather doesn't mess about. Between the driving Pennine rain and those gusty winds, your roof needs more than just tiles to stay dry. That is where professional leadwork comes in. It is effectively the 'critical seal' of your home. At Tyler’s Roofing Services, we’ve spent years perfecting the art of lead fabrication to ensure that whether you’re in a Victorian terrace in Birstall or a modern build in Dewsbury, your home stays bone-dry inside. We don't just 'patch things up' with sticky tape or sealant; we use traditional skills and modern standards to create a barrier that lasts for generations.
Why Choose Us?
Reliable Roof Seals with Quality Lead
Choosing the right thickness of lead isn't just a technicality—it is the difference between a roof that lasts sixty years and one that fails in five. We work strictly to BS 6915 standards, meaning every piece of lead we fit is the correct 'Code' for the job. Most homeowners we speak to aren't aware that using Code 3 lead where Code 5 is needed can lead to buckling and splits as the metal expands and contracts in the sun. For your flashings, we typically use Code 4, while those deep valleys that carry the bulk of Batley’s rainfall usually require Code 5 or higher. By getting the weight right from the start, we're making sure you won't have to worry about damp patches appearing on your bedroom ceiling for a very, very long time.

Who We Are
Professional Flashing and Chimney Repairs
Have you noticed a suspicious damp spot near your chimney breast? Often, the culprit isn't the bricks themselves but the lead flashing that has pulled away or cracked over time. Chimneys are notoriously difficult to seal because they sit right in the firing line of the weather. We specialise in step flashings, apron flashings, and cover flashings that wrap around your masonry like a tailored suit. We also handle 'soakers' - those clever, hidden bits of lead tucked under your slates that prevent water from 'wicking' upwards through capillary action. Our team uses specialist gritstone-compatible mortar for pointing, ensuring the lead stays firmly chased into the stone or brickwork of your Kirklees property.

Specialist Lead Welding and Bossing
Lead is a unique material because it's so incredibly versatile. To get it to fit the awkward corners of a dormer window or a complex roof valley, we use two main techniques: bossing and welding. Bossing involves manually shaping the cold lead with specialist tools to follow the contours of your roof. For more complex joints, we use lead welding (often called lead burning), where we use heat to fuse sheets together for a seamless, watertight bond. One thing we always do that many 'quick-fix' contractors skip is apply patination oil. This prevents that unsightly white carbonate staining from running down your tiles and ensures the lead develops that classic, uniform grey look that looks so sharp against West Yorkshire stone.
