KayleyH Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Can anyone recommend a lead roofer to do a flat roof for us? We are in West Sussex. Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorfun Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 I’m confused. You want to use lead on an entire flat roof? Didn’t even know that was a thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterW Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Depends on the size..? Is it a fully flat roof needing rolls etc or just a flat roof over a window..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has one big disadvantage though as many a church has found out... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from the theft aspect isn’t it really expensive compared to other covering? We had some lead work on our roof and the rolls of lead were costly.

There are lead roofs, still keeping the rain out, that were installed before GRP and EPDM was invented! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
