Here at KL – Roofing LTD we undertake a range of first-class leadwork services for domestic, commercial and industrial clients throughout Guildford, Reading and the surrounding areas. When you notice a leak in your property or a lack of thermal and sound insulation, it’s a good time to contact a friendly roofer from our experienced team and request our specialist leadwork services.
Lead acts as an additional layer of insulation for the roofing structure and supports the waterproof system. There are many benefits to keeping your lead flashing in sound condition, including enhancing the roof’s aesthetic and functional qualities.
Our leadwork services include:
Lead flashing is an integral element in any roofing system. It helps prevent water ingress, protecting the property from leaks, mould and pest infestations. If you notice signs of damage like cracking and splintering, or less insulation in the property, it’s best to get a roofer from our team to assess the condition of your leadwork and carry out repairs before the damage becomes worse.
If the damage is beyond repair, we will strip out the old flashings and replace them with up-to-date materials that will be properly installed by our professionals and last for years.
We also undertake lead welding to spot repair minor damage, such as small holes in the flashings. Lead welding is the process of joining sheets of the material, using a blow torch alongside a heating and cooling method that fuses them together with strong bonds that will withstand harsh weather conditions and other elements.
As well as leadwork services, here at KL – Roofing, we offer a full spectrum of roof repairs to ensure the entire structure is in the best working and visual condition possible to keep your property safe and dry. Our roofers are available across Guildford, Reading and the surrounding areas.
Lead has been used in the construction of roofing systems on all types of properties for decades. Many historic buildings even feature lead roofs due to the material’s longevity and durability. It’s resistant to corrosion and can cope in harsh weather conditions like strong winds and heavy rainfall. And lead is often recycled, which contributes to more sustainable building practices.
As an excellent sealant, lead is also used to create watertight roofing and guttering systems. It is flexible and can be used to seal the joins of complex structures.
Our quality leadwork services will also prevent heat loss, reducing energy bills and providing sound insulation so your place of work or relaxed home is not disturbed by outside noises.
