Oliver's Battery Property Profile

What Oliver's Battery Properties Need for Lead Work

Oliver's Battery was built primarily 1930s village and 1960s–80s roads. The dominant roofing material is mixed — clay and concrete. The lead work on most Oliver's Battery properties is 45–100 years old. Properties on Oliver's Battery Road South, Romsey Road are representative of the typical Oliver's Battery housing stock.

The SW Winchester, moderate conditions in Oliver's Battery affect how quickly roofing elements deteriorate.

FAQ

Lead Work Oliver's Battery — Questions

Full chimney lead set: £400–£800. Valley replacement: £450–£900. Bay roof lead: £350–£650. Lead redress (minor): £150–£350. Free survey — call 01962 809171.

1930s and 1960s–80s Oliver's Battery properties have original lead flashings now 80–120 years old — replacement is typically the maintenance priority. We assess all lead elements at the free survey.

Code 4 minimum for cover flashings and soakers. Code 5 for back gutters and valley linings. We specify code on every Oliver's Battery lead work quote and never install below BS 6915 minimum.

Where the lead is structurally sound but has lifted at a chase, re-dressing (£150–£350) is appropriate and cost-effective. Where the lead has failed through the section or been repeatedly patched, full replacement is the honest recommendation.

Yes — soaker presence is confirmed at every Oliver's Battery chimney survey. Step flashings without soakers behind them have only one waterproofing layer at the sides and fail sooner. We install correct soakers on all Oliver's Battery lead replacements.

Correctly specified code 4 chimney flashings: 50–70 years. Code 5 back gutters and valleys: 60–80 years. Lead work we install in Oliver's Battery today is designed to outlast the current ownership.

Active water ingress from a failed chimney lead should be addressed within 24–48 hours. Call 01962 809171 for a same-day or next-morning assessment across Oliver's Battery.
