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.
