Replacing roof valley irons is a common roof maintenance task. Roof Valley Irons are made of sheet metal and do rust over time. Sometimes they leak water into the roof cavity. A rusty Valley Iron looks very untidy on your roof.

Valley Irons are attached to the timber structure of the roof and tiles need to be lifted and set aside to remove the existing Valley Iron.
