Newmarket's mix of Victorian terraces, Georgian townhouses, and older stable conversions puts a lot of ageing lead flashings under pressure — we cut and dress lead to the correct Code specification so your roof stays watertight for decades.
The High Street and surrounding streets are lined with period properties where chimney stacks and parapet walls rely on lead soakers, stepped flashings, and back gutters that are often well past their best. On the racing yards and converted stud buildings on the town's fringes, flat roof abutments are another common weak point where poorly lapped lead lets water track in unseen.
We work regularly across Newmarket and into the surrounding villages of Exning, Kentford, and Cheveley. Failing lead is one of the leading causes of internal damp in older Suffolk-border properties, and doing the job properly once — with correctly coded lead dressed and fixed to current standards — is always cheaper than repeated patch repairs.
