Lead Work & Roofing
At Traditional Heritage, we specialise in lead work and maintain an impeccable standard in all historical building work that we carry out. Typically, lead is commonly known to expand and contract as weather conditions change, therefore, detailing must allow for this to prevent any change in shape or size. With this in mind, it’s important to call on the help of professionals when it comes to lead work; especially when this work is to be carried out on historical buildings or traditional homes.
Introduced for making water pipes as far back as Roman Empire times, Lead is now one of the most commonly used materials for a number of building purposes. Lead is a soft, flexible and extremely resilient heavy metal. These elements combined make it an excellent resource for building and construction, especially externally.
Skilled & Experienced Lead Work Specialists
While lead work can be an essential requirement when structural issues arise, it’s also important to ensure that someone who is experienced conducts regular inspections of historical buildings. These checks are important in ensuring that lead work is up to scratch, and most importantly, can prevent problems down the line.
Lead work carried out by our team of professionals at Traditional Heritage can, in fact, reveal defects before they cause big problems to your precious building. It’s also important to note that additional checks should be made after storms as strong winds can shift or lift lead work from its original position, which in turn, can let in unwanted water and cause damp.
