Expert Leadwork Specialists in Glossop | Protecting Your High Peak Home
Living in Glossop, we all know that the Pennine weather doesn't mess about. When the horizontal rain hits the High Peak, your roof needs more than just tiles to keep the water out. That is where professional leadwork comes in. It is essentially the 'critical seal' of your building, tucked into the joints where masonry meets the roof. At Tyler’s Roofing Services, we’ve seen far too many 'quick fix' repairs using sticky tapes or cheap sealants that fail after a single winter. We do things differently. By using traditional lead fabrication and following strict BS 6915 standards, we provide a finish that doesn’t just look beautiful against local Derbyshire stone, but is also guaranteed to last for decades.
Why Choose Us?
Custom Lead Flashing for Chimneys and Dormers
Have you noticed a damp patch on the ceiling near your chimney breast? Most of the time, it is not the chimney itself that is leaking, but the flashing around the base. Lead flashing acts as a bridge between your roof and the brickwork, but if it is fitted poorly, it can actually 'suck' water upwards through capillary action. We specialise in installing step flashings, apron flashings, and cover flashings that are tailored to the specific pitch of your roof. Whether you have a Victorian terrace in the centre of Glossop or a modern detached home in Hadfield, we ensure every piece of lead is chased and pointed with specialist gritstone-compatible mortar to keep everything watertight.

Who We Are
Lead Valleys and Gutters Designed for Heavy Rainfall
The valleys—those 'V' shaped channels where two roof slopes meet—carry a massive amount of water during a High Peak downpour. If these are undersized or fitted with the wrong weight of lead, they will buckle and leak. We typically use Code 5 lead or higher for valleys to ensure they have the thickness needed to handle the expansion and contraction caused by our changing temperatures. Our team is skilled in both lead bossing (manually shaping the metal) and lead welding (using heat to join sheets). This technical precision ensures that your valleys and lead-lined gutters remain a seamless, leak-proof channel for years to come.

Why Lead Codes and Patination Oil Actually Matter
You might hear us mention 'Code 4' or 'Code 5' lead. These aren't just jargon; they refer to the thickness and weight of the lead sheet. Using the wrong code for the wrong job is a recipe for disaster—too thin and it cracks, too thick and it’s too heavy for the structure. We also never consider a job finished until we’ve applied patination oil. If you have ever seen new lead with ugly white streaks running down your roof or staining your stonework, that is lead carbonate. Our specialist oil prevents this oxidation, leaving you with a professional, uniform grey finish that looks fantastic from day one.
