Polsloe’s specific characteristics create distinct lead work requirements. The 1930s and victorian housing stock in Polsloe presents conditions that differ from Exeter’s post-war suburbs, and the correct specification for each job reflects the age, construction method and local exposure of the property.
Victorian terrace stacks with shared party wall lead work; 1930s semi stacks with original 1930s code 3 lead now at end of service life. We carry out free surveys across Polsloe, Exeter and provide written fixed-price quotes with no call-out fee.
Lead flashings in Polsloe should be visually inspected every 5 years as a minimum, with back gutters inspected every 3 years on properties with adjacent tree canopy. The inspection takes 15 minutes with access to the chimney stack from the roof — we carry out lead inspections during every roofing visit in Polsloe regardless of the primary purpose of the call. The inspection checklist covers: step and apron flashing fold-point condition (look for white chalking and hairline cracking perpendicular to the bend); back gutter base and bay joint condition (look for standing water staining, erosion, and open joints); soaker overlap at tile edges (check for lifting); and mortar tuck integrity (check for open joints at the masonry interface). Lead that passes this inspection can be expected to provide service for the next 5 years. Lead that shows two or more failure indicators is approaching the point where repair stops being cost-effective relative to full replacement.
