LEAD & METALWORK SERVICES
Chimney Aprons & Edge patterns
A chimney is usually the highest point on a property—exposed to wind, rain and freeze/thaw movement. Correctly fitted leadwork is essential to keep water out.
We install back gutters, front aprons and step flashings around all chimney types, sealing off what’s usually the most vulnerable part of the roof. But there’s more to it than function.
Many clients choose to include decorative motifs—swages, scalloped edges, or bossed corner details—which we form by hand to suit the character of the property.

This type of detailing gives a finish that’s both watertight and visually in keeping with period properties or architect-led designs.
