Full clay tile roof refurbishment in Weston village, Bath. Complete with newly refurbished soffit, uPVC clad fascia and new 112mm half round guttering.
This was a tricky one to get completed over the January period, as all work was completed traditionally which meant that we were hampered by the cold and wet weather!
Our client is delighted with the transformation, and for less than quoted. So in the end, all is well and we are really pleased to have been chosen to deliver this work.
LEAD VALLEY REPAIR - Fishponds, Bristol.
As an alternative to costly full refurbishment, this defective lead valley was repaired.
Splits had occurred in the esxisting oversized lead, due to thermal expansion and contraction.
The existing splits have now been overlaid with new pieces of code 4 lead sheet, extending the life of the existing valley construction for years to come.
Supply and installation of lead capping to coping stones - Bedminster, Bristol.
These defective coping stones had been allowing for ingress for years, following several failed attempts at repair. To ensure any ingress issues were permanantly cured, we supplied new code 4 lead capping to the entire run of coping stones, ensuring new cover flashings were chased into the chimney at the abutments.
Replacing ridge tiles - Bedminster, Bristol.
Stripping and relaying existing concrete ridge tiles, with additional cover flashings to ensure correct coverage can be achieved.
These ridge tiles had been laid with an inadequate lap by others, and had subsequently been repaired using a cement mortar.
To ensure these ridge tiles would provide adequate coverage to the tiles either side, new code 3 lead cover flashings were installed beneath the reinstated ridge tiles.
Leadwork, Bath.
Here we supplied new code 4 lead cover flashings, to this large glazing unit on a property in Bath.
Chimney take down and partial rebuild - Bedminster, Bristol.
Here, a defective chimney was partially dismantled and rebuilt, before being weatherproofed with new lead work and a cement mortar capping. New render was then applied to provide additional long term weatherproofing.
