At BARL Roofing, we’re not just about roofs, we’re about every detail that protects your home from the elements. Our latest completed project involved rebuilding a damaged parapet wall and installing lead flashing to spec, and the results are solid, sleek, and built to last in London Fields, East London.
🔨 What We Did:
This project required precision craftsmanship and compliance with structural standards. Here’s what we tackled:
- Fully dismantled a deteriorating parapet wall showing signs of water damage and movement
- Rebuilt the wall using high-quality bricks and mortar, ensuring stability and longevity
- Installed lead flashing to exact specification, creating a waterproof seal between the roof and parapet
- Finished with pointing and weatherproofing to ensure maximum durability
This type of work is essential for preventing water ingress, preserving structural integrity, and maintaining the aesthetic of period and modern properties alike.
💡 Why Proper Parapet & Flashing Work Matters:
Parapet walls and flashing might seem like minor details, but they play a huge role in keeping your property protected. When done right, they:
✅ Prevent damp issues and leaks
✅ Direct water away from vulnerable junctions
✅ Boost your property’s overall longevity
✅ Add a crisp, professional finish to any roofline
When neglected, though?
You risk internal water damage, structural weakening, and costly repairs down the line. That’s why we only work to spec, no shortcuts.
