Lead Work in Kirkpatrick-Fleming

Lead Work in Kirkpatrick-Fleming

Kirkpatrick-Fleming customers looking for lead work turn to Sweep It Cumbria. Lead flashing seals the junction between your chimney stack and the roof covering. In Cumbria's wet climate, failed or cracked lead is one of the primary routes for rainwater into a property — staining ceilings, soaking roof timbers, and eventually tracking down to the chimney breast below. We repair and replace lead soakers, stepped flashings, and back-gutters at chimney stacks, using the correct grade of lead appropriately dressed and bonded to shed water clear. All lead is laid with the correct fall and overlap for long-term weathertightness in a high-rainfall environment. Kirkpatrick-Fleming is a small Dumfriesshire village just across the border, roughly equidistant between Gretna and Annan. The village sits close to where Robert the Bruce is said to have sheltered in a cave on the banks of the Annan — and like many of the older stone properties in this part of the Borders, the houses here rely on solid-fuel and open-fire heating through the winter.
