Sawston sits just south of Cambridge and has a varied housing stock that keeps lead work in steady demand, from older mill-era cottages to the post-war and modern estates that expanded the village significantly.
The older properties along Mill Lane and Church Lane often have original lead valleys and chimney flashings that have never been replaced. These ageing leads are prone to cracking and lifting, particularly after the temperature swings we get in South Cambridgeshire. On newer homes, we frequently find builder-grade lead work that was laid too thin or poorly dressed, leading to early failures around dormer windows and flat roof abutments.
We supply and fit new lead to the correct code for each application, and we can re-dress existing lead that has lifted but isn't yet due for full replacement. Ring us to arrange a no-obligation inspection in Sawston.
