Leadwork Specialists in Meltham Operating Across Kirklees
Protect Meltham homes with expert leadwork
Living in Meltham, you know exactly what the Pennine weather is capable of. When the driving rain hits the Kirklees hills, your roof needs more than just tiles to stay dry—it needs a watertight seal. Leadwork is often the unsung hero of your home, tucked away in the valleys and around the chimney, keeping the water out where two surfaces meet. At Tyler’s Roofing Services, we’ve spent years mastering the art of lead fabrication to ensure your property stays bone-dry, no matter how hard the weather tries to get in. If you’ve noticed a damp patch on the ceiling or a bit of lead flapping in the wind, it’s probably time we had a look.
Why Choose Us?
Leadwork is your roof's best defence
Have you ever wondered why lead has been used on roofs for centuries? It’s because, when it’s installed correctly, it can easily last over 60 years. While modern plastic alternatives might seem like a quick fix, they often crack and fail under the sun and frost within a decade. We see it all the time—homeowners in Meltham who’ve had a 'patch-up' job that’s started leaking again after a single winter. By choosing professional leadwork, you’re making a once-in-a-generation investment. We use the right materials for the right job, ensuring your home doesn't just look the part but is structurally sound for decades to come.

Who We Are
We follow strict industry standards
We don't believe in guesswork when it comes to your roof. All our leadwork is carried out to BS 6915 standards and follows the Lead Sheet Training Academy (LSTA) guidelines. This means we pay close attention to things like 'lead codes'—which is basically the thickness and weight of the lead. For example, we’ll usually use Code 4 for your flashings but step up to Code 5 or higher for valleys and flat roofs where the water sits longer. Whether we’re 'bossing' the lead (shaping it by hand) or 'lead welding' (using heat to join sheets), you can trust that the technical side of the job is handled by experts who know exactly what they’re doing.

Secure chimney flashings stop leaks fast
The area where your chimney meets your roof is a prime spot for leaks. If your chimney flashing is old, cracked, or poorly fitted, water can actually be 'sucked' upwards through capillary action, leading to hidden rot in your roof timbers. We specialise in installing step flashings and apron flashings that create a permanent, watertight bond with the masonry. We take the time to properly 'chase' the lead into the stone or brickwork and point it with specialist, gritstone-compatible mortar. It’s a bit more work than using a tube of sealant, but it’s the only way to ensure it doesn't leak again next year.

01484 627842Reliable lead valleys for heavy rain
Lead valleys are the channels where two roof pitches meet, and in a heavy Kirklees downpour, they handle an incredible amount of water. If a valley is blocked or the lead has thinned over time, it’s a recipe for a flooded attic. We’re experts at replacing worn-out valleys with heavy-duty lead that can handle the volume. We make sure the joints are properly overlapped and fixed to allow for natural thermal expansion—something many general builders forget. If lead isn't allowed to move as it heats and cools, it will eventually buckle and split. We make sure that doesn't happen.
