Wendling is a small village between Dereham and Swaffham where the rural character and older agricultural buildings mean that quality lead work — installed to last — is worth doing properly the first time.
The hamlet's proximity to Wendling Carrow and the former priory site gives the area a deep-rooted sense of history, and several of the older residential properties here reflect that — stone and brick mixes, irregular rooflines, and chimney stacks that require carefully dressed lead rather than off-the-shelf alternatives. Poorly fitted mortar fillets are often used as a cost-cutting measure on smaller rural jobs, but they crack within a few winters and need replacing; lead flashings done correctly will outlast the roof itself.
As a Dereham-based firm, we cover Wendling without call-out charges and treat small village jobs with the same care as larger projects. We're happy to inspect existing lead work and give you an honest assessment of its remaining life before committing to any spend.
