Traditional Lead Roofing & Leadwork
Lead has been used in roofing for generations and remains an important material for both traditional and modern roofing applications. Its flexibility makes it particularly useful around roof junctions and other areas where a watertight connection between different roofing elements is required. Lead can also complement traditional roofing materials such as slate and tiles.

Lead Flashing Repairs & Replacement
Damaged or deteriorated lead flashing can create vulnerable points within a roofing system and may allow water to enter the property. Signs that leadwork may require attention can include loose or damaged flashing, visible deterioration or signs of water ingress around roof junctions.
Depending on the condition of the existing leadwork, targeted repairs or lead flashing replacement may be appropriate.
Where more extensive work is required, replacing deteriorated leadwork can help restore the weather protection of the affected area. The right approach depends on the condition of the existing leadwork, the extent of the damage and the requirements of the property.
