The house dates from the 1840s. The original eaves above the stone parapet is covered in lead which is badly cracked in several places and various attempts at patching have failed. This lead ledge is about 15 m long and 26inches wide and the integral gutter is only slightly curved. It is accessible from upper windows but for any major work we would probably need scaffolding. My question is: would it work if we coated it in epdm rubber (either in liquid or sheet form) or should we try and repair the lead?
