Pretty happy with how this barrel dormer is turning out. Get this slated around tomorrow and make a start on the other one.

Had a barrel of laughs today. Made a start on one of the barrel dormers. I didn’t get a video at the end of the day, totally forgot. But we got all the panels on the bottom rows set into place and dressed down. Top panels tomorrow and put a dent in the front of this roof by the end of the week.

Neat little trick if you make a mistake when welding lead. Just heat the weld back up and stick it back to the rod.

Last vid of the week. Nice four day week for a change. Gonna take the daughter shopping in Manchester.

Started to slate this one today. The weather tried its best to stop us but we made canny progress. These 24x12 slates are monsters, they’ve got another 120 years life in them yet.

Episode 2 of this weeks roofing diaries. Today we stripped the rest of the front, fit the bonding gutters, graded the slates and got it ready for slates to go down.

Just started the strip and recover. Another great job to put my name too. The 24x12’s are going back on the front and Canadian Glendyne’s are going on the back. Got the lead dormers to redo in lead again so that’ll be fun.

From a tired, poorly repaired bay window roof covered in flashband. To a brand new lead roof in one day. New timber deck, new wood core rolls, and a traditional lead finish that will last 100 years.

Put a shift in today to get this complete before we start the next big strip and recover. The weather slowed us down but it didn’t stop us. A new lead bay roof complete for a lovely client who appreciates the traditional methods. It’s always a pleasure doing work like this.
