Leadwork in High Wycombe for chimneys, walls, valleys, bay roofs and dormers: wherever a roof meets something, the lead keeps the water out. Ring 01494 292776 for a free quote.
Lead does the hardest job on a roof. It seals the joint between the tiles and a chimney, a wall, a dormer cheek or the roof next door, and it lines the valleys where two slopes meet. When it splits, lifts or was dressed badly in the first place, water goes straight in.
Old lead on the terraces and semis around High Wycombe has had decades of frost and sun. It cracks along the folds, the mortar holding the top edge into the brick washes out, and storms lift it. Mortar fillets used instead of lead crack away from the wall altogether.
We cut out the old lead, chase it properly into the mortar joint, dress new code lead to the roof and seal it. Steven's chimney leak was fixed this way: new lead flashing and repointing, and in his words "the leak has been fixed".

I engaged Safetech Roofing to undertake the re-pointing and removal/replacement of the lead flashing around my chimney which was leaking. Since the work has been completed the leak has been fixed. Pat and his team were reliable, professional and were able to fit me in at short notice. I’m very pleased with the work they’ve carried out and would highly recommend.
Safetech Roofing completed a number of repairs to the roof and loft space in my house, as well as the installation of an internal support element for a partially removed chimney stack. The work was done to a very high standard and at the agreed quotation, which was good value. A council building control officer then inspected and passed the structural element of the works. When some queries were raised by building control, Safetech went above and beyond to help resolve them. The suggestions made by Safetech and their team all the way through were extremely knowledgeable and practical. They also actively discouraged me from carrying out unnecessary expensive work, and instead suggested a lower cost, simpler solution, which the building control officer then agreed with. Additionally, the scaffolding had to be left in place far, far longer than expected - this was due to delays on my side and Pat generously didn’t charge extra for this
I recently had a complete new re-roof done by Safe Tech Roofing, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the result. From start to finish, their professionalism was spot on. They explained everything clearly, provided a fair and detailed quote, and stuck to the agreed timescale. The team worked incredibly hard, kept the site clean and organised, and showed real attention to detail throughout the entire job. The quality of workmanship is excellent, the new roof looks fantastic and gives me complete peace of mind knowing it’s been done properly. You can tell they take real pride in what they do. Reliable, skilled, and trustworthy, I would highly recommend Safe Tech Roofing to anyone needing roofing work done. Top company. Top job.

We contacted the service about a roofing issue at our home and he came out the very next day to take a look. Even though the job was small, he was willing to take it on without hesitation. The work was handled professionally and in a timely manner. It’s not always easy to find someone who responds quickly and is willing to help with smaller projects. Highly recommended!
