Lead work expertise like no other company in the North East
Used broadly across domestic, commercial and industrial properties for more than 150 years, lead remains a popular building material. It is not only durable but also heavily resistive to corrosion, and has practically the capacity to both shrink and expand, according to temperature. As a versatile building material, it is measured in weight, from Code 3, which is like a thin paper, up to Code 8, akin to thick cardboard.
As you can tell, we’re not only experts in lead work, but passionate about it, too. When we come to your property, we will be able to demonstrate the appropriate thickness of the lead required on your property, in line with current building regulations. We’ve been doing this for almost 40 years, delivering lead work knowhow and expertise to homes across Newcastle, Sunderland, Middlesbrough, Cleveland, County Durham and beyond.

Why is it so important to your roof?
It’s easy to forget that the lead work on your roof is no less important than the actual roof covering. If you spot a stain on your ceiling and then see broken tiles on your roof, it makes sense to jump to the conclusion that the problem is there. However, it is often identified, upon closer inspection, that the lead flashings are actually at fault – and that is where we come in.
Our experienced team specialise in not only flashing but also entire lead roofs, decorative bays and step flashing. This must always be installed, dressed and pointed correctly in order for it to continue performing the way you require it to. Most importantly, if lead work is not undertaken correctly and professionally, it can mean disaster for your property.
This is why we always deliver work to the highest possible industry standard and keep up to date with how lead work must be installed in accordance with building regulations. After the many years we have spent in our industry, we enjoy working with this time-tested, incredible material, too.
