Lift span Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 What's the best way of finishing off this lead detail? I've done a lean to extension with a slate roof and fitted the lead flashing. Youtube as failed me though as I can't find a way of finishing the lead at the end: Do I cut it, bash it, wrap it? Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nod Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Remove your Downpipe Cut a 30 mil deep Chanel inline with the one you’ve already cut bend the of a square of lead 25 mil at 90 degrees Do the same at the r hand side as you look at it You will have to snip the top at 45 degrees to allow you to fold around the corner Tap the other lead over The dress the new lead over the Facia I usually took under the Facia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Temp Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 +1. Perhaps make one out of paper or card first to see how it would go. Too easy to cut off a bit of lead then wish you hadn't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
