Soham has a quieter feel than nearby Ely, but its older housing stock presents exactly the same lead work challenges — and we carry out all flashing and valley work here to a consistent standard.
The streets around St Andrew's Church and the older parts of Soham include some attractive Victorian and Edwardian properties where original lead details are still in place but beginning to fail — particularly chimney back gutters and apron flashings that have lifted away from the mortar chase. New builds and 1990s estates on the edge of town more commonly need lead soakers at verge abutments or step flashings to single-storey side extensions. In Cambridgeshire, lead flashing to chimney stacks should typically be renewed every 50–70 years depending on pitch and exposure.
We serve Soham from Brandon and carry out all lead work to BS EN 12588 standards with guaranteed workmanship — call to book a free lead work inspection.
