Costessey stretches from the older village core near the church ruins to the large housing estates closer to the A47, and both ends of that spectrum present different but equally common leadwork problems.
The older properties in New Costessey and around Hall Lane include solid Victorian and Edwardian houses with proper chimney stacks and tiled valleys where lead is the only sensible long-term material. On the more recent 1970s and 1980s estates, we frequently find that original lead has been replaced at some point with thin mortar fillets or self-adhesive flashing tape, neither of which lasts more than a few years in Norfolk's wet winters before pulling away from the brickwork.
We work throughout Costessey and the surrounding Tud Valley area, dressing all lead to the correct BS code on site. If your chimney flashing has started to lift at the edges or you have noticed damp appearing on a chimney breast wall, call us for a free roof-level survey before it becomes a timber repair job too.
