Specialist Lead Work
We offer true specialist lead burning—a traditional craft involving the precise welding of lead to create seamless joints. This eliminates weak points and delivers exceptional longevity for high-end properties and heritage buildings across London.
When You Need Specialist Lead Work
Cracked or split lead flashings letting water into chimneys or roof junctions. Outdated soldered joints failing on historic box gutters and valley gutters. Bespoke architectural lead detailing required for high-end residential restorations. Corroded or slipping leadwork on heritage properties requiring authentic craftsmanship.
How We Do It
We examine the architectural requirements and measure up for bespoke lead components. We safely remove failing lead flashings or gutters without disturbing surrounding stonework. We install high-grade sheet lead and use professional lead burning techniques to fuse joints into a single continuous piece. We dress the lead neatly to accommodate natural thermal movement and finish the installation to heritage standards.
What to Expect
Project duration varies based on complexity, from a single day for flashings to a week for major heritage box gutters.
