Lead Roofing in South London, Surrey & Kent
Lead is used across many parts of a roof, from flashings and valleys to gutters and flat roof areas. When this work needs repairing, replacing or installing, careful detailing matters. GRD Roofing provides lead roofing and roofing leadwork across South London, Surrey and Kent, backed by more than 18 years of roofing experience.
Based in Shirley, GRD Roofing undertakes leadwork as a standalone service and as part of wider roofing projects. You can arrange free expert advice and an estimate, with the proposed work explained before you decide how to proceed.
Lead Roof Installation
Lead roofing can be used where the design and requirements of the roof call for it. GRD Roofing carries out lead roof installation for domestic properties, with documented experience across several different types of leadwork.
One previous project involved replacing a lead table-top flat roof using 900 mm code 5 lead set in bays with wood roll. Other completed projects include lead valleys, box gutters and flashings.
This practical experience gives you access to lead roofers who understand how leadwork relates to the surrounding roof rather than approaching it as an isolated component.
Roofing Leadwork
Leadwork is often found where different roof surfaces, walls and other structures meet. These areas require careful attention because they form part of the detailing that helps protect the property from the weather.
GRD Roofing's roofing leadwork includes step flashings through to lead flat roofs. Previous work shown by the company also includes lead valleys with reinstated tiles, a lead back gutter to a chimney stack and lead flashings used alongside rendered walls.
If you are unsure what leadwork your roof requires, GRD Roofing can assess the area and explain the proposed approach.
Lead Flashing
Lead flashing is commonly used around junctions such as chimney stacks and where roofing meets adjoining walls. Problems in these areas can sometimes be associated with water getting into the property.
GRD Roofing has completed several documented flashing projects. These include lead flashings re-rendered with bell bead and code 4 lead flashings installed as part of work to re-rendered walls.
A customer in Bromley also described GRD Roofing replacing storm-damaged flashing, while customers in Beckenham reported that replacement lead flashing and repointing resolved work required around a leaking chimney breast.
These examples provide genuine evidence of the company's experience rather than relying solely on general claims about lead roofing.
Lead Valleys & Box Gutters
Valleys and gutters can be important areas of a roof because they deal directly with rainwater moving between roof surfaces.
GRD Roofing's completed projects include a lead valley with newly reinstated tiles and a lead back gutter to a chimney stack with sand and cement pointing. The company has also carried out lead box gutter work.
Because these details connect with surrounding tiles, brickwork and other roof components, an experienced roofing specialist can consider the wider area when establishing what work is needed.
Lead Sheet Roofing
Lead sheet roofing can be formed and installed for particular roofing applications. GRD Roofing's documented work with code 4 and code 5 lead provides examples of lead being used for different roof details and larger lead-covered areas.
If your project requires lead sheet roofing, the first step is to establish the specific work involved. GRD Roofing can discuss the roof with you and provide an estimate based on the requirements of the property.
Where a particular lead code, certified material or project specification is required, this should be confirmed during the assessment so that the exact requirement is established before work begins.
Leadwork Around Chimney Stacks
Chimneys are one area where lead roofing expertise and wider roofing knowledge frequently come together. Flashings and back gutters sit alongside brickwork, pointing, tiles or slates, so a problem may involve more than one component.
GRD Roofing undertakes chimney work as well as lead roofing. Previous projects include a lead back gutter with pointing around a chimney stack, while customer feedback documents replacement lead flashing and chimney repointing at a property in Beckenham.
This wider capability means you can discuss the chimney and its surrounding roofing as part of the same assessment.

A Local Lead Roofing Specialist
Leadwork often needs to function alongside other parts of the roof, so broader roofing experience can make it easier to consider the complete area rather than one detail in isolation.
As well as lead roofing, GRD Roofing works on slate and tile roofs, chimney stacks, flat roofs, roof repairs and complete roof replacements. If the assessment identifies related roofing work, you can discuss those requirements with the same business.
This gives you access to a local lead roofing expert who can consider both the immediate leadwork and the surrounding roof.
