Sandhurst, Berkshire
Leadwork in Sandhurst
Leadwork on Sandhurst properties is most commonly associated with chimney stacks on the older housing — step flashings, back-gutters, and soakers that have reached or passed their expected lifespan. Legacy Roofing carries out lead flashing repairs and replacements across Sandhurst, working to correct Code specifications for the application.
Some of the older housing in the Blackwater area bordering Sandhurst includes Victorian and Edwardian properties with more extensive original leadwork — valley gutters and dormer details that require careful assessment of what is still sound versus what needs replacement.

Leadwork in Sandhurst — FAQs
Correctly specified and installed lead flashings can last 60 years or more. Failures typically occur within much shorter periods when the wrong Code weight is used or details are not properly dressed.
Minor cracks and splits can sometimes be repaired, but failed step flashings or split valley gutters usually need replacing. We will assess and advise on the best approach.
This is usually a sign that the lead was tuck-pointed into the mortar joint rather than fixed into a proper reglet, or that the mortar has deteriorated around the fixing. We re-dress and re-point correctly as part of our chimney flashing repairs.
