How to Ensure Successful Installation

Installation of the Lead Slate 0°-35° is straightforward, yet it is imperative to follow the correct procedures to maximise its performance. Begin by thoroughly cleaning the roof area where the flashing will be applied. This step ensures that no debris or moisture interferes with the bonding process. Next, position the lead slate accurately around the flue pipe, ensuring that the upstand is perfectly aligned for optimum water run-off. Secure the lead using appropriate fixings and recommended sealants. This not only adheres the product in place but also secures it against windy conditions and other external pressures.
