Lead work

Lead Work

One of the oldest and most durable materials used in roofing, lead sheet has been documented to last over 200 years, but has fallen out of favour in recent times due to the complexity of its employment. Requiring specialist knowledge to repair and maintain, Midwest Roofing has experts on our team who are extremely well versed in dealing with lead roofs.

Lead Roof Repairs & Renewals

Although it’s one of the strongest materials used in the roofing industry, lead can encounter fatigue cracks over the course of time due to expansion and contraction as a result of heating and cooling the metal. These will require the welding of a small patch of lead over the affected area, which must be carried out by a trained expert. Broken roll ends will generally need to be entirely replaced by prefabricated fittings, which will need to be welded into place.
