About Old Colwyn Properties

Large 1960s-70s estates on hillside south of A55. Coed Pella Road, Bro Eirwg. Victorian village core around St Catherine's Church. Elevated position above the coast.

Hillside elevation means more frequent and severe frost than coastal towns. South-westerly wind funnelling. 1960s-70s tile stock at end of design life.

Why Old Colwyn Specifically Matters for Lead Roofing

Old Colwyn's hillside position means the thermal cycling on lead flashings is more extreme than at coastal sites — greater temperature range between summer sun and winter frost. This thermal cycling causes lead fatigue at dressed edges faster than in moderate coastal temperatures. We factor this into lead thickness specification on Old Colwyn hillside properties — using Code 5 in applications where Code 4 would be standard at sea level.

Our Lead Roofing Process

Correct Code for Every Application

Code 4 for step flashings and soakers. Code 5 for back gutters and wide aprons. Code 6 for valleys and large gutter linings. We specify correctly — not all contractors do.

New Lead, Not Re-Dressed Old

Work-hardened lead that has been in place for decades will crack when re-dressed. New code-grade lead correctly installed outlasts any attempt to re-use old material.

Pointed with Lime, Not Silicone

Flashings in conservation areas and on period properties are pointed with NHL lime mortar. Silicone fails in 5–7 years. Lime mortar, correctly mixed, outlasts the lead.
