Leadwork in Arundel, Brighton, Woodingdean, East Preston & Sussex | JAH Roofing Specialists
Roofers use lead to seal and protect many different areas of a roof, especially those that might be in particularly vulnerable positions. Property owners around Arundel, Brighton, Woodingdean, East Preston and wider Sussex, the principal areas my team and I cover, will most likely find leadwork around chimneys, dormers, gutters and valleys. And while lead is a fantastic material due to its durability, versatility and resistance to corrosion, it’s by no means immune to exhibiting the tell-tale signs of wear and tear, or even outright damage caused by environmental factors or persons working on your roof.
My team uses its experience in leadwork during new roof installations, chimney repairs and roof repairs. We also carry out leadwork on a standalone basis, perhaps because existing lead flashing has failed, been poorly installed or is beginning to show its age. Due to the fact leadwork requires specialist skills, equipment and expertise to be delivered to a high standard, we recommend bringing in a reputable roofing company to handle yours – such as JAH Roofing Specialists if you’re located in Arundel, Woodingdean, Brighton, East Preston or elsewhere in Sussex.
