![]() "Peter Hemmings" wrote in message news ![]() I am about to replace a tiled pitched valley which has been leaking on my 50's semi (facing west in the west country). I have got a pamphlet from British Lead Mills giving details and went to a merchants who advised fitting grey GRPF sheeting like most new houses. Could someone advise on the following: Get a pre-formed GRP valley .... then you only need lead at the apex, will outlast you. Code 5 lead is what you should use on a valley if you want to use lead ... rmember you need to instal;l full lay boards to support the lkead, or it will creep under it's own weight in the sun. Rick |
