Default Lead Flashing

I'm considering attempting to build a pitched roof over my existing flat
roof on the protruding
portion of my garage at the front of the house.
The one area that I have no idea about is the Lead flashing.
Is this a simple, angle grind out 1" or so of mortar, shove in the lead and
point up?
or is there more to it?
Also, does anyone have any links to plans or walkthroughs for building a
small pitch roof?


Wickes had a reasonable looking 'good Ideas' leaflet on lead work, you
can download a pdf from their site:

It's no. 22, Working with Lead
