Given Avon Valley floor, moderate and valley floor humidity from Avon; riverside autumn leaf debris, lead work in Durrington faces nail sickness uniformly across Larkhill Road 1960s–70s concrete tile estates. We specify Code 5 as the minimum for all exposed lead work in this area.
The Avon Valley floor, moderate means lead flashings in Durrington face more demanding thermal cycling and UV loading than in sheltered valley positions. Given valley floor humidity from Avon; riverside autumn leaf debris, Code 4 lead at chimney flashings and soakers and Code 5 at valleys, parapet gutters and any exposed horizontal lead is the correct specification. Undersized lead code is the most common cause of premature failure we see when rectifying previous poor-quality lead work.

|---|---|
| Lead valley replacement | £350–£800 |

| Chimney flashing — large stack | £600–£1,000 |
| Bay roof lead replacement | £400–£900 |
