Holt is one of North Norfolk's finest Georgian market towns, and the quality of leadwork on its older buildings needs to match the quality of the buildings themselves.
After the 1708 fire, Holt was largely rebuilt in brick, giving the town centre its distinctive Georgian uniformity — pitched slate roofs, symmetrical chimney stacks and parapet gutters that in many cases contain lead-lined timber boxes. These parapet gutters are a significant lead feature that often goes unnoticed until a ceiling collapse forces the issue. Lead-lined parapet gutters in Holt properties typically need relining every 40–60 years, and many are now well overdue. Beyond the town centre, the Victorian and Edwardian streets towards the Hempstead Road have their own leadwork demands — stepped chimney flashings and dormer cheeks among them.
We work regularly in Holt and across the surrounding villages including Letheringsett, Thornage and Briningham. As a premium market town, Holt homeowners rightly expect a high standard of finish, and our leadwork is carried out to BS EN 12588 with proper code selection for each application. Call us to arrange a free survey — we'll bring a ladder and give you a proper assessment.
