Lead roofing systems are constructed primarily or entirely from lead sheets. These lead sheets are shaped and installed to create a weatherproof, highly durable form of roofing. Lead is a dense and corrosion-resistant material which is known for its longevity. This makes lead an excellent choice for roofs as it provides long-term performance and protection against the elements. Lead roofing is often used for waterproofing both residential and commercial buildings. It is especially likely to be seen used on historical and heritage buildings. Lead has an excellent reputation for its ability to withstand extreme weather conditions, cope with thermal movement and provide a secure barrier against water infiltration. Lead roofing systems are typically installed by skilled craftsmen who shape and join lead sheets using traditional techniques.

Lead roofing is a long-lasting and weather-resistant material made from lead sheets, commonly used in heritage properties, churches, and prestigious buildings. Known for its exceptional durability, lead roofing can last over a century if installed and maintained correctly. Lead is highly flexible, allowing it to expand and contract with temperature fluctuations, which helps prevent cracking and leaks. This adaptability makes it ideal for intricate roof designs and detailing, such as domes, chimneys, and parapets, where a precise fit is crucial.
Lead roofing is also highly resistant to corrosion, offering robust protection against the elements, including heavy rain and strong winds. It is often selected for its aesthetic value, as lead develops a natural patina over time, enhancing the character of older or historic buildings. According to Historic England, lead roofs can last significantly longer than other roofing materials, making them a cost-effective investment in the long term. Additionally, lead is fully recyclable, contributing to its sustainability and reducing environmental impact over its extensive lifespan.
The properties of lead make it an excellent material. Lead is durable, flexible, low in toxicity, offers a great barrier against many environmental factors and adds a great looking finish to your home.
