Lead, a time-tested roofing material, has been relied upon for centuries to safeguard structures from the elements and water ingress. Its versatility in roof repair and flashing is widely recognised, with lead sheeting's pliable nature allowing for precise shaping to fit various surfaces and configurations. This flexibility is further fortified by lead's innate resistance to corrosion and moisture.


In roofing projects, leadwork plays a crucial role, often associated with slate, tiled roofing, and brickwork. Our expert team at Felt That Roofing specialises in traditional lead detailing techniques, seamlessly blending old-world craftsmanship with modern roofing needs. Whether it's extensive installations or minor repairs, our tailored service offers comprehensive maintenance, repair, and replacement solutions.

Traditional leadwork

Of particular importance, lead plays a pivotal role in sealing joints between surfaces, commonly referred to as "flashing." Properly installed lead flashing acts as a protective barrier between your roof and brickwork, effectively preventing leaks and reinforcing your structure against adverse weather conditions.
