Lead Works & Flashing

 

Yes, lead has long been a popular choice in roofing due to its exceptional sealing capabilities and malleability, making it perfect for creating watertight joints. It is primarily used to join different surfaces, such as around chimneys, roof valleys, and vents, where water ingress is most likely to occur.

Lead is also highly durable and resistant to corrosion, making it a dependable solution for long-term weatherproofing. Its flexibility allows it to be easily shaped and adjusted to fit complex or irregular roof structures, ensuring an effective seal even in challenging areas.

Our team of experienced roofers excels in the installation, repair, and maintenance of lead roofing. From minor lead flashing repairs to full-scale replacements, no project is too big or small for our specialists. With extensive expertise in all aspects of lead roofing, we deliver high-quality workmanship and tailored solutions to meet your specific needs. You can trust us for reliable, professional service every time.

Different Types of Lead Works & Flashing

  1. Continuous Flashing / Apron Flashing – Used along the length of a sloped roof to protect the joint where the roof meets a vertical wall.
  2. Chimney Flashing – Ensures a watertight seal around chimneys to prevent leaks.
  3. Counter Flashing – Installed opposite or above base flashing to direct water away from the joint.
  4. Step Flashing – Applied where a sloped roof meets a vertical surface, with individual pieces layered for maximum protection.
  5. Skylight Flashing – Provides a secure, weatherproof seal around skylights.
  6. Valley Flashing – Protects the roof valleys where two roof slopes meet, directing water away efficiently.
  7. Drip Edges – Installed along roof edges to guide water into the gutters and prevent underlayment damage.
  8. Kickout Flashing – Directs water away from the intersection of the roof and a wall to prevent moisture damage.

Each type plays a critical role in maintaining a watertight and durable roofing system.
