Why Choose APX Roofing?

Why Choose Lead for Your Bordon Property?

Lead is a truly exceptional material when installed correctly. It’s incredibly durable, lasting for generations when properly maintained. Its malleability means it can be shaped to fit even the most complex roof details, providing a watertight seal where other materials fail. Plus, its traditional appearance complements the character of many Bordon homes. For longevity and weather resistance, lead is a brilliant choice, offering a reliable and robust solution for your roofing needs.

Lead Work Solutions Tailored to Your Specific Needs

We understand every property is unique. That's why we take the time to properly assess your needs before recommending any work. Whether you need a small repair to a leaking flashing or a complete lead roof replacement, we provide a service tailored to your specific requirements. We'll provide a clear and comprehensive quote, explaining the work involved in plain English so you can be confident in your decision.

Professional Lead Welding and Installation

Our team are highly skilled and experienced in all aspects of lead work, including traditional lead welding techniques. We use only the highest quality lead sheet, ensuring a flawless finish that will stand the test of time. Improperly installed lead work can cause more problems than it solves, that is why choosing experienced professionals is important.

Protecting Your Chimney Stack with Expert Lead Flashings

Your chimney is particularly vulnerable to water damage. We provide expert lead flashing services to ensure a watertight seal around your chimney stack, preventing damp and costly repairs down the line. We will inspect the current weathering and recommend the best solution for a long lasting chimney structure.

What Our Clients Say About APX Roofing

"Our garage roof had seen better days, and we were concerned about leaks. APX Roofing provided us with a competitive estimate and did an excellent job installing it. The new roof is solid, and now we are able to use our garage without the concern of water damage."

Alexander Camren

"APX Roofing is who we hired to do our roof inspection prior to buying our home. They discovered a couple of minor issues which enabled us to negotiate a better price from the seller. Their attention to detail and knowledge saved us money in the long run!"

Korbin Marcel

"When our slate roof was losing tiles, we weren’t sure whom to trust to repair it. APX Roofing was recommended to us by a friend, and we couldn't be more happy we called them. They matched the new tiles with the existing, making it look as good as new. Excellent service!"

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our roofing services

Is Lead Still a Good Choice for Roofing?

Absolutely. Despite the emergence of modern materials, lead remains a top-tier option for many roofing applications. It's incredibly durable, lasting for generations with proper installation and maintenance. Lead's malleability means it can be shaped to fit complex roof details, ensuring a weathertight seal in areas where other materials might struggle. Plus, it's recyclable, making it an environmentally conscious choice.

How Long Does Lead Work Last?

That’s the beauty of lead! A properly installed lead roof can easily last for 50 to 100 years, sometimes even longer. The lifespan depends on the thickness of the lead, the quality of the installation, and the local weather conditions. Regular inspections and prompt repairs can significantly extend its life.

What Sort of Lead Work Do You Provide?

We provide a complete range of lead work services here at APX Roofing. This includes:

  • Lead Roofing: Complete lead roof installations for new builds and replacements.
  • Lead Flashing: Protecting vulnerable areas like chimneys, roof valleys, and wall junctions.
  • Lead Gutters and Downpipes: Traditional and durable rainwater solutions.
  • Lead Welding and Repairs: Expert repairs to existing lead work, ensuring a seamless finish.
  • Lead Detailing: Ornamental lead work to enhance the aesthetic appeal of your property.

How Much Does Lead Work Cost?

The cost of lead work depends on several factors, including the size and complexity of the job, the thickness of the lead required, and the ease of access. We provide free, no-obligation quotes, so you can get an accurate price tailored to your specific needs. We always aim to offer competitive prices without compromising on quality.

What Lead Sheet Thickness Do I Need?

The correct lead thickness depends on the application. Thicker lead sheets are generally used for roofing, while thinner sheets are suitable for flashing and detailing. We can advise on the appropriate thickness for your project, ensuring optimal performance and longevity. Lead is measured in codes, so we’ll help you understand which code is right for you.

What About Lead and the Weather?

Lead is incredibly resilient and copes well with the UK's varied weather conditions. It’s resistant to corrosion, doesn’t crack in cold weather, and can withstand high temperatures without warping. However, proper installation is crucial to ensure it remains watertight and performs optimally in all weather conditions.

What if I Need Help Matching Existing Lead Work?

We can certainly help with that. We have years of experience working with lead on period properties and understand the importance of maintaining the original character of your building. We can source lead that closely matches existing lead work, ensuring a seamless and sympathetic repair or replacement.

  • Quality Materials: We only use premium-quality lead sheets from reputable suppliers.
  • Guaranteed Workmanship: We stand behind our work and offer a comprehensive guarantee on all lead work projects.
  • Customer Satisfaction: We prioritise your satisfaction and strive to exceed your expectations.

How Long Does Lead Work Take?
