Expert Leadwork Specialists in Romiley | Protecting Your Property for Decades
<p>If you've ever taken a stroll through the streets of Romiley, you'll know exactly why we love working here. From the sturdy Victorian terraces to the beautiful detached homes near the Peak Forest Canal, the architecture is full of character. But as any local knows, the Stockport weather doesn't mess about. When the driving rain comes off the hills, your roof needs more than just tiles to keep the water out. That's where <strong>expert leadwork</strong> comes in. At Tyler’s Roofing Services, we think of lead as the 'critical seal' of your home. It's the tough, flexible barrier that bridges the gaps where masonry meets tile, ensuring your home stays bone-dry no matter what the clouds throw at us.</p>
Why Choose Us?
Professional Lead Flashings for Romiley Chimneys and Walls
<p>Have you noticed a damp patch creeping across your upstairs ceiling near the chimney breast? It’s a common sight for many homeowners in Romiley, and more often than not, a failing lead flashing is the culprit. We don't believe in quick fixes or sticky tape 'solutions' that only last a season. Instead, we use <strong>Code 4 lead</strong> for most flashings, carefully cutting into the mortar joints (a process we call chasing) and securing the lead with specialist clips. Whether it's step flashings on a sloped wall or apron flashings at the base of your chimney, we make sure every piece is installed to <strong>BS 6915 standards</strong>. This isn't just about looking neat; it's about creating a seal that lasts for sixty years or more.</p>

Who We Are
Precision Lead Welding and Bossing for Custom Roofs
<p>Lead is a remarkable material, but it requires a real touch of craft to get it right. We use two main methods: <strong>bossing and welding</strong> (sometimes called lead burning). Imagine trying to shape a flat sheet of metal around a complex corner without it thinning or cracking—that's bossing. For more intricate joins, we use lead welding to create a seamless, watertight bond. We see a lot of 'DIY' lead attempts where the metal has been stretched too thin, leading to splits just a few years later. Because we follow <strong>LSTA (Lead Sheet Training Academy)</strong> guidelines, we ensure the lead has enough room to expand and contract as the Stockport sun warms it up and the winter frost cools it down. It’s all about preventing those tiny cracks that let the damp in.</p>

Durable Lead Valleys and Gutters for Peak Performance
<p>The valleys of your roof—those 'V' shaped channels where two slopes meet—handle a massive amount of water during a typical North West downpour. If these are blocked or fitted poorly, water can actually be 'sucked' upwards through <strong>capillary action</strong>, rotting your roof timbers before you even know there's a problem. For these high-flow areas, we typically use <strong>Code 5 or 6 lead</strong>. This extra thickness provides the structural strength needed to support the weight of the water. We pay close attention to the 'falls' and 'steps' in your gutters to make sure water flows exactly where it should: straight into your downpipes and away from your foundations.</p>

01484 627842Heritage Craftsmanship Meets Modern Protection
<p>Romiley and the wider Stockport area are home to some stunning heritage buildings that deserve to be treated with respect. When we're working on a listed property or a conservation-grade restoration, we don't just throw on any old material. We specialise in <strong>heritage leadwork</strong>, ensuring the finished look is perfectly sympathetic to the original stone and slate. One thing we never skip is the application of <strong>patination oil</strong>. Without it, new lead can develop unsightly white carbonate streaks that wash off and stain your tiles or brickwork. Our oil treatment ensures your lead ages to a beautiful, uniform matt grey that looks professional from day one and protects the metal from the elements for a lifetime.</p>
