Leadworks Installation

Leadworks Installation – QSR Roofers UK

Leadwork is one of the most traditional and durable roofing materials used in construction. It offers unmatched weather resistance, flexibility, and a long lifespan, making it a popular choice for roof coverings, flashing, chimneys, and valleys. Whether for a heritage property or a modern building, leadworks deliver both functionality and timeless appeal.

At QSR Roofers, based in Wickford, Essex, we provide expert leadworks installation services throughout Essex and the surrounding areas. Our skilled craftsmen are trained in traditional and modern leadworking techniques, ensuring each installation is watertight, durable, and aesthetically suited to your building.

Lead is highly adaptable and can expand or contract with temperature changes, making it ideal for the UK climate. It’s especially effective in protecting vulnerable roof junctions such as valleys, dormers, parapet walls, and chimney bases. With proper installation, leadwork can last for over 100 years with minimal maintenance.

Our Leadworks Installation Services Include:

  • New lead roof coverings

  • Lead flashing installation around chimneys and roof junctions

  • Lead cladding for dormers, turrets, and bay windows

  • Lead valley gutters and box gutters

  • Decorative leadwork for heritage buildings

  • Welded and bossed joints to ensure water resistance

Every project begins with a detailed site assessment. We evaluate your roof’s design and determine the appropriate type and thickness of lead sheet (typically coded by weight). Whether you require a full lead roof or precise flashing work, we tailor our services to suit your project requirements and budget.
