Lead and zinc on your roof in Purmerend

Roof edge, parapet and gutter

Lead and zinc form the waterproofing at the points where the roof covering ends or is interrupted. Leadwork is found at upstands and connections with a wall, where lead flashing seals the seam between the roof and the masonry. Zinc work can be found in the gutters and along the roof edge. Lead is soft and can be hammered over bricks, whereas zinc is stiffer and is joined into a continuous piece by soldering. We take care of the installation and assembly of new lead and zinc work and the repair of existing work, ensuring the connection is watertight again. Leaks caused by a crack in a lead flashing or a leaking seam in a gutter can be remedied with a repair. For a leak in the roofing itself, read more at roof repair. We work in Purmerend, Middenbeemster, Edam, Volendam, Oosthuizen, De Rijp, Landsmeer, and Oostzaan.
Leadwork seals the seams at upstands and walls, while zincwork forms the gutters and the finishing of the roof edge. We install new lead and zinc and repair existing work. If a lead flashing is torn or a gutter is leaking at a seam, a repair may suffice. We work in Purmerend and the surrounding towns, from Volendam to Landsmeer.

Frequently Asked Questions about lead and zinc in Purmerend

Soldering, repairing and the gutter

Below you will find answers to questions about the difference between lead and zinc, soldering, and repairing lead roofing. The disadvantages of a zinc gutter are also discussed. The final question concerns when a repair is sufficient and when replacement is wiser.

Lead is heavy and soft, and can be hammered over masonry. Lead is laid at joints, such as at an upright or along a wall. Zinc is lighter and stiffer and is joined into long pieces by soldering. This is how gutters and roof edges are made of zinc.

Lead and zinc occur together on a roof, for example where lead connects to a zinc gutter or roof edge. We assess on a roof-by-roof basis whether soldering is the correct connection at that location. Yari de Boer has completed a zinc course, and we apply that knowledge to this work.

A small hole or crack in roof lead can be temporarily sealed with sealant suitable for lead. If the lead is cracked over a longer length or detached from the masonry, a new piece of overlapping lead is the permanent solution. Only go onto the roof in dry weather, and only if you can access it safely.

The disadvantages a zinc gutter presents for you depend on your roof and the condition of the gutter. If you see white deposits, corrosion, or a leaking seam, we will help determine the cause. We repair or replace a zinc gutter. gutter, and also perform maintenance, such as keeping the gutter clean.

If the leak is localized, such as a loose solder joint or a crack in a lead flashing, a targeted repair may suffice. However, if the zinc has thinned across the entire gutter, replacement is the better choice. We will work with you to determine the cause and solution, and then prepare a quotation.

Our garage roofing was due for replacement due to age. After a pleasant introduction to Dakdekker Specialist Purmerend, they came by soon after to take precise measurements. The new bitumen layer was laid incredibly smoothly, and the finishing around the zinc edges also looks super neat. Polite guys who even swept the garden completely clean afterwards!

During heavy rainfall, slight damp penetration occurred at the gable seam in the attic. Yari immediately climbed onto the roof and showed us razor-sharp photos of the worn lead flashing. This proactive roofer replaced the leadwork the same week, and everything is bone dry again.
