Leadwork
Leadwork in Rye
Henry Gaskin covers leadwork in Rye, part of the family-run roofing service running the length of the Kent coast from Rye to Margate.
Rye is a historic hilltop town of cobbled streets and timber-framed buildings, overlooking Romney Marsh and the River Rother towards the coast. The mix of steep pitched roofs and older building stock on Rye's hill makes tile-matching and careful repair work particularly important.
In Rye, the most common reason for a leadwork call-out is lead in valleys failing and letting water track under the tiles, alongside lead stripped or displaced by high winds — both made worse by the Rye area's exposure to Channel weather, even on higher ground.
