Lead is a highly durable roofing material renowned for its exceptional weather resistance and longevity. Its use in roofing dates back to ancient times, proving its enduring qualities.Lead roofing is incredibly versatile due to its low melting point and lightweight nature. This makes it ideal for roofs with unique shapes or structures.In addition to its durability, lead roofing is environmentally friendly. At the end of its lifespan, lead can be melted down and reused without losing its weatherproof properties, making it a sustainable choice.
Lead roof sheets have a long lifespan, which makes them a popular option for commercial buildings such as schools.On average, a lead roof can last around 60 years, though some have been known to last over a century.
Lead flashing plays a vital role in various types of roofs, including clay and slate tiled roofs. It is installed in areas prone to structural joints or potential water entry points, such as chimney surrounds, vent pipes, and window and door openings. Lead flashing acts as a protective barrier, preventing water penetration and ensuring the integrity of the roof.

If you observe visible cracks or watermarks on your interior walls or ceilings, it may indicate that your lead flashing requires repair. While such instances are rare, they are typically caused by corrosion resulting from condensation.
