At Fortress Roofing, we offer high-quality lead work services for domestic and commercial properties across Bristol and the surrounding areas.

With decades of experience in roofing and building maintenance, we specialise in installing and repairing lead flashing, soakers, and box gutters to protect your home or building from water ingress.

Lead remains one of the most reliable materials for weatherproofing vulnerable areas of a roof, including chimneys, valleys, and junctions between roof slopes and walls. When installed correctly, it not only enhances the durability of your roof but also adds a traditional finish that complements a wide range of property styles.

Lead Flashing Installation & Repairs

We install and repair lead flashing around chimneys, roof junctions, dormers, skylights, and abutments. This flexible and long-lasting material is ideal for keeping water out and ensuring your roofline remains watertight year-round.

Chimney Lead Work

Chimneys are one of the most common areas for leaks due to failing or poorly installed flashing. We carry out complete chimney lead flashing services, including front aprons, back gutters, and step flashing.

Lead Soakers

Lead soakers are fitted beneath slates or tiles alongside walls or chimneys to provide an extra layer of protection from driving rain. We manufacture and install these by hand for a perfect fit and long-term performance.

Chimney Relining

A damaged or degraded chimney liner can pose a serious safety concern. Our chimney relining service ensures proper ventilation and protects your property from heat and combustion by-products. We use high-quality materials tailored to your specific requirements, offering long-lasting solutions.

Box Gutters and Lead Valleys

Our team also installs and maintains lead box gutters and lead-lined valleys, which are especially important on period or flat-roofed properties. These provide superior drainage while maintaining an authentic architectural look.
