Brandon's mix of Victorian terraces, older flint-built cottages, and post-war semis all share one vulnerability — lead flashings that take a battering from the exposed Breckland weather.
Sitting on the edge of Thetford Forest, Brandon sees plenty of wind-driven rain sweeping across from the heathland, and the town's older stock of flint and brick properties often have original lead work around chimney stacks and abutments that's now well past its best. We work regularly in Brandon and know the property types here well — including the canal-side terraces near the Little Ouse where damp ingress from failing flashings is a recurring issue.
We cut, dress, and fix lead flashing by hand to a traditional standard, using code 4 or code 5 lead as the situation demands. Whether it's a step flashing on a mid-terrace or a valley repair on a detached bungalow out towards Santon Downham, we'll assess it properly and give you an honest quote before any work starts.
