Soham is one of the larger Fenland market towns, and its broad mix of Victorian terraces, inter-war semis and older flint-faced properties gives us plenty of varied lead work to keep us busy here.
Victorian and Edwardian terraces on roads like Churchgate Street and Julius Martin Lane frequently have original chimney stacks with lead back-gutters and step flashings that are now well over a hundred years old. Where lead has been previously patched with mortar or mastic rather than properly repaired, water ingress often continues unnoticed until ceiling staining appears. We strip back failed repairs and replace with correctly coded lead, dressed and clipped to current standards.
For newer Soham properties — particularly detached houses on the town's more recent estates — bay window lead roofs and flat-roof sections with upstand flashings are the most common areas we're called to. A properly installed lead bay roof in this part of Cambridgeshire should last forty years or more with minimal maintenance.
