Lead Work Services

Specialist Lead Repair, Replacement & Installation Across London and the South East

Lead is one of the most durable and reliable roofing materials available, but it requires specialist skill to install and maintain correctly. At AWH Roofing Ltd, we provide a complete leadwork service, from minor repairs to full replacements, ensuring your roof remains watertight, efficient and built to last.

Our leadwork is carried out by trained and experienced tradesmen with extensive knowledge of traditional techniques, modern methods, and proper detailing. With our background in Lead Sheet Association training and decades of hands-on experience, we ensure every job is completed to the highest professional standard.

Why Specialist Leadwork Matters

Lead is renowned for its long lifespan, flexibility and weather resistance — but only when it is fitted properly. Incorrect installation can lead to:

  • Cracking or splitting

  • Poor expansion and contraction movement

  • Premature leaks

  • Failed flashings

  • Water ingress around chimneys and abutments

With AWH Roofing Ltd, you can be confident that your leadwork is installed using best-practice methods that preserve the integrity of your roof for years to come.

Our Leadwork Services Include:

Lead Flashings

We replace and install lead flashings around chimneys, walls, dormers and roof junctions. Correctly fitted flashings protect vulnerable areas and prevent water penetration.

Lead Valleys

Your roof valleys handle large amounts of rainwater, making properly installed lead valleys essential. We repair damaged valleys or install new ones to ensure smooth water flow.

Lead Gutters & Parapet Gutters

We create fully welded lead-lined gutters that provide a long-lasting, watertight solution for traditional and heritage properties.

Lead Dormers and Cladding

For dormer sides, cheeks and roofing, lead offers excellent durability and a premium finish. Our craftsmen can repair existing work or install new lead coverings.

Lead Sheet Replacement

Old or poorly installed lead can deteriorate or crack. We remove defective sections and replace them with new lead sheet fitted to industry standards.

Craftsmanship You Can Rely On

All slate, lead and carpentry work is completed by fully qualified tradesmen, and every project is finished with the care and precision expected from a specialist roofing team. We follow Lead Sheet Association guidelines to ensure:

  • Correct code selection

  • Proper expansion joints

  • Secure fixings

  • Long-term durability

  • A neat, professional finish

Whether your property requires minor touch-ups or a complete leadwork overhaul, you can trust us to deliver results that stand the test of time.
