Lead Flashing problems on new extension roof

jacrock

Hi all

We are currently in the process of building an extension and have now got to the lead flashing. The problem is that we have redland regent tiles which are very deep rolled tiles.
As the lead rolls over the tiles the lead shortens but the vertical upstand against the wall does not and it pulls away from the wall due to the front section shortened.
In a metre section it shortens it by nearly 200mm.

Does anyone know how you get around this or what the alternative is? It's driving my husband bonkers and we are desperate to get scaffolding down so that we can start inside!!
Hope someone can help!!

is it code 4 or 3

should be 4 (thicker) this is harder to dress to the tile. i will have a go at a pic on my tiles redlands, but the lead has to be fixed well into the joint, and dress down in the well. it takes some time to do it correctly and very tiresome.
