Taverham is a largely residential village that expanded significantly in the 1970s and 1980s, meaning a large number of homes now have lead work that is overdue for inspection or replacement.
The detached and semi-detached homes that make up most of Taverham's housing stock often have chimney stacks serving gas fires that are no longer in use - but the stack remains, and the lead flashing around it still has to keep water out. Unused chimney flashings are often the last thing homeowners think to check, yet they are among the most common sources of roof leaks we find in properties of this age and type. Valley gutters between rear extensions and main roof slopes are another frequent problem area.
We serve Taverham and the neighbouring areas including Ringland and Drayton, and our approach is straightforward - we assess the lead work on site, explain what we find, and dress or replace only what is necessary. Taverham's position on the edge of the Wensum valley means roofs here can catch weather from several directions, so correct lead detailing matters more than it might first appear.
