Leadwork in Glasgow
Most homes in Scotland have some form of leadwork on their roof structures. As one of the oldest roofing materials still in use, many roofs have unfortunately had poor quality leadwork. This can lead to various of problems, including:
Too much moisture in an under-ventilated building can cause moisture to gather in the internal roof space. Over time, this can have a corrosive effect on the leadwork.
If leadwork is over fixed it’s not able to expand or contract with the changes in temperature. This can lead to damage and water seepage.
If leadwork is fixed too near the edge of the material, over time wind can work its way under the lead material causing rips and tears, resulting in water seepage and internal damage to your property.

Efficient guttering solutions
Gutters are responsible for channelling rainwater away from the structure as quickly and efficiently as possible. Failure to repair or maintain guttering can lead to serious problems both internally and externally.
When old cast iron gutters and downpipes break down or corrode, we recommend replacing them with longer lasting flexible uPVC gutters. If not installed with the correct number of brackets or fixings, rainwater can cause gutters to sag. Gutters should also be fixed at a slight slope almost invisible to the naked eye to allow the rainwater to run away freely .
