Expert Leadwork & Flashing Repairs
in Lanark, Scotland
Trusted slaters and roofers with over 40 years' experience.

If you have noticed damp patches appearing on the walls or ceilings near your chimney breast, the culprit is often failed or ageing lead flashing. Over time, the lead that seals the gap between the chimney stack and your roof tiles can crack or pull away. We provide expert chimney flashing repairs, replacing worn-out sections with high-quality lead that is dressed and pointed correctly. This simple repair can save you from the high costs of structural timber rot and interior re-plastering.

Roof valleys are the internal angles where two roof slopes meet, and they are responsible for directing large volumes of rainwater into your guttering. If these lead valleys become blocked, split, or corroded, water can quickly back up under your slates or tiles. Our team provides comprehensive inspections and repairs for valleys and abutments, ensuring your roof remains a seamless barrier against moisture. We use traditional techniques to ensure a durable finish that matches the character of your property.

Lead has been the gold standard for roof weatherproofing for centuries because of its incredible lifespan and flexibility. At Gordon Gardiner Slater & Plasterer, we combine these traditional materials with modern precision. Whether you own a heritage building in a conservation area or a modern home in Carluke or Biggar, our leadwork is designed to last for decades. We take pride in our craftsmanship, ensuring every piece of flashing is installed to the highest trade standards.
