East Harling is a traditional Breckland village with a striking parish church and a core of older Norfolk properties that regularly need skilled lead work — our Thetford team covers the village and the nearby hamlets.
The dominant feature of East Harling is St Peter and St Paul's Church, whose roof and lead work serve as a reminder of how long properly installed lead can last when maintained. The village itself has a mix of traditional flint and brick cottages, some Victorian farmworkers' terraces, and a modest number of more recent bungalows and semis. Older properties here frequently have lime mortar-bedded flashings that have begun to open up, or lead valleys that were installed decades ago and are starting to show pin-hole failures. Left unattended, these cause significant timber rot in the roof structure.
We carry out full lead replacement and repair in East Harling, working to the correct BS code for the pitch and exposure of each roof. We also advise honestly on whether a partial repair will give you another ten years or whether a full valley replacement is the better value in the long run.
