Lead Works & Flashing
Yes, lead has long been a popular choice in roofing due to its exceptional sealing capabilities and malleability, making it perfect for creating watertight joints. It is primarily used to join different surfaces, such as around chimneys, roof valleys, and vents, where water ingress is most likely to occur.
Lead is also highly durable and resistant to corrosion, making it a dependable solution for long-term weatherproofing. Its flexibility allows it to be easily shaped and adjusted to fit complex or irregular roof structures, ensuring an effective seal even in challenging areas.
