Newmarket Roofers provides reliable lead flashing and lead work in Wicken, a small fenland village where properties face persistent damp conditions that test any roofline detail.
Wicken sits on the edge of Wicken Fen, one of the oldest nature reserves in the country, and the moisture-laden air that comes off the fen puts real pressure on roofing materials — especially older lead flashings that have hardened and cracked over time. The village has a mix of brick-built cottages and modest Victorian terraced properties, many with chimney stacks that haven't had their lead work properly attended to for years.
We work with code 4, 5 and 6 lead sheet depending on the application, and all our lead work is correctly secured to prevent wind uplift — a real concern on roofs exposed to the open fen landscape. If you're a Wicken homeowner dealing with a damp chimney breast or a leaking flat roof edge, contact us to arrange a free lead work assessment.
No obligation · We usually respond within 2 hours
Storm damage, active leak, damaged ridge — we aim to be on-site within 24 hours.
