What Is Lead Work in Roofing?

Lead work refers to the use of lead materials to seal and protect vulnerable areas of a roof. It is commonly used around joints, edges, and areas where different parts of the roof meet.

Lead Flashing

Lead flashing is used to seal joints around chimneys, walls, and roof features. It prevents water from penetrating these areas and causing damage.

Lead Valleys

Lead valleys are installed where two roof slopes meet. They help channel rainwater safely off the roof and into the guttering system.

Lead Soakers

Lead soakers are small pieces of lead placed under tiles to provide additional protection against water ingress.
