Stop Leaks with Specialist Leadwork in Rothwell
Have you ever spotted a damp patch creeping across your ceiling after a particularly nasty West Yorkshire downpour? More often than not, the culprit isn't a broken tile, but a failing lead seal. Here in Rothwell, our homes have to stand up to some proper Pennine weather, and lead is the unsung hero that keeps the rain out of the gaps where your roof meets the brickwork. At Tyler’s Roofing Services, we don't just 'patch things up' with a bit of sealant. We’re fully trained in traditional lead fabrication and bossing, ensuring your home stays watertight for decades, not just until the next storm hits. Whether you're living in a classic Victorian terrace or a modern semi, getting your leadwork right is the best investment you can make for your property's future.
Why Choose Us?
Choose the Right Lead Code for Your Roof
One thing we notice a lot is builders using lead that's simply too thin for the job. It’s a common mistake that leads to cracking and 'fatigue' after just a few years of sunshine and frost. We stick strictly to BS 6915 standards and LSTA guidelines, which means we always use the correct weight for the specific area of your roof. For example, we'll typically use Code 4 for your step flashings and apron flashings, but if we’re tackling a deep valley or a flat lead roof, we’ll step up to Code 5, 6, or even 8. It’s all about making sure the lead can expand and contract without splitting. Why settle for a five-year fix when a professionally installed lead valley should easily last over sixty years?

Who We Are
Professional Chimney Leadwork and Flashing Repairs
Chimneys are notorious for leaking, mostly because they sit right in the firing line of the wind and rain. If the lead flashing around your stack has started to lift or pull away from the mortar, water will find its way in. We specialise in bespoke lead fabrication, which is just a fancy way of saying we shape every piece of lead to perfectly fit your specific chimney or dormer. We take the time to properly 'chase' the lead into the stone or brickwork and point it with specialist gritstone-compatible mortar. This prevents that annoying 'capillary action' where water gets sucked upwards and behind the lead—a hidden problem that causes rot in your roof timbers before you even know it's there.

01484 627842Heritage Leadwork for Leeds' Historic Buildings
If you own a listed building or a property in one of Rothwell’s conservation areas, you know how important it is to keep things looking authentic. Modern plastic alternatives just don't cut it. Our team are experts in traditional bossing and lead welding (sometimes called lead burning). Bossing involves manually shaping the lead with wooden tools to fit intricate corners, while welding allows us to join sheets with heat for a seamless, watertight finish on larger areas. It’s a bit of a dying art, but for heritage slate roofing or complex architectural features, it’s the only way to get the job done properly. We treat every historic property with the respect it deserves, ensuring our work is sympathetic to the original character of the building.

01484 627842Get a Professional Finish with Patination Oil
Ever noticed how some new leadwork develops ugly white streaks that run down the roof tiles? That’s carbonate staining, and it happens when raw lead is exposed to the rain for the first time. We don't consider a job finished until we’ve applied a thorough coating of patination oil. This simple step protects the lead while it settles, giving it that classic, uniform matte grey finish that looks so good against West Yorkshire stone. It’s a small detail that many 'quick-fix' roofers skip, but it makes a massive difference to how your home looks from the street. We’re all about doing the job right the first time, from the structural seal down to the final aesthetic touch.
