This is great to see. It is far superior to the methods we use in the states. Everything is about speed here. I wish i was able to do this sort of work. We use the lead as soakers (as you call them) and step flashing all in one piece. We step the lead up and flash under the shingles with the same piece of lead, so for each step a different piece of lead is used. The next piece is then flashed over the preceding one. It is water tight, but the quality of work is not the same as your method.

i am a painter .I admire the work that goes into these flashings .I have studied hundreds of these .Why are the cuts on the step flashing at 45 degres.Most are at 90 degres .Here in newzealand the wind would drive water into the 45 corner

Thanks for that, its good for the sole. The purpose of the film is to share bits and pieces with other interested people and promote the sale of the various flashing we make and sell online. Our company is Just Lead. From what i can see, no body seems to be offering similar in the USA. I consider it to be an opportunity for someone over there. Good Luck

Hi. Give it a try with a length of paper. say 170 mm /200 mm wide, 65 mm water line
The steps will be long, and the angle between courses can be formed to create the aesthetics you like. Defiantly paper first.

Hi With both slates and tiles (not intelocking) soakers are used. These can be made from sheet lead, copper or zinc. The piece will be 180 mm wide and bent with 100 mm for between slates / tiles and 80 mm up the brick, stone or block work, this upstand is covered by the flashing .
