Why Choose Us?
Why High-Quality Leadwork Matters for Your Home
Lead is one of the most durable materials used in the construction industry, often outlasting the tiles or slates around it. However, its effectiveness relies entirely on the quality of the installation. Poorly installed lead can crack, split, or lift, leading to water ingress that causes significant damage over time. We use premium rolled lead sheet to British Standards, ensuring that every piece of work we carry out is built to withstand the harsh British weather. From preventing damp around dormer windows to sealing the junctions on flat roofs, professional leadwork is the first line of defence for your home.

Who We Are
Our Experience with Complex Lead Welding and Bossing
Working with lead requires a specific set of tools and a steady hand. It isn't a job for a general handyman. Our team has years of experience mastering the traditional techniques of lead bossing (shaping the metal by hand) and lead welding. This expertise allows us to handle complex detailing around difficult corners and junctions where off-the-shelf products simply wouldn't fit. We approach every project with a focus on superior workmanship, ensuring that the thermal movement of the lead is accounted for to prevent future splitting. This attention to detail is what sets our services apart across Oxfordshire and Surrey.
We cater to a wide range of roofing needs, from minor maintenance to extensive restoration projects. Our services include replacing worn-out flashings around chimneys, installing new lead gutters and box gutters, and fitting lead aprons on flat roof extensions. If you have noticed damp patches on your ceilings or water running down your internal walls, it is often a sign that the lead seal has failed. We can quickly assess the condition of your current installation and recommend a durable repair or replacement strategy that suits your budget and property style.

Frequently Asked Lead Work Questions
Answers to common questions about our Lead Work
Need Urgent Roof Help in Oxfordshire?
Leaks, storm damage, structural issues – we get it sorted, fast. We complete 98% of emergency jobs within 4 hours because we know you need a reliable solution, now.
What exactly is leadwork, and why is it important for my roof?
Leadwork involves using lead sheets to create weatherproof seals and flashings around vulnerable areas of your roof, such as chimneys, valleys (where two roof slopes meet), and abutments (where the roof meets a wall). Lead is incredibly durable and malleable, making it perfect for shaping to complex roof details and providing a long-lasting barrier against water ingress. Good leadwork is essential for preventing leaks and protecting the structural integrity of your building.
How often should I have my leadwork inspected?
We advise getting your leadwork checked every few years, especially after severe weather. Regular inspections can identify small problems early on, preventing them from escalating into costly repairs. If you notice any signs of damage, such as cracks, splits, or displacement, contact us straight away.
What are the common types of leadwork repairs?
Typical repairs include replacing damaged or missing lead flashings, repairing cracks and splits, and re-sealing joints. In some cases, complete replacement of lead sections may be necessary, particularly if the lead has deteriorated significantly due to age or environmental factors.
Is leadwork environmentally friendly?
While lead itself is a mined material, it's also highly recyclable. At Trustmark Roofing, we always prioritise recycling lead whenever possible, minimising waste and promoting sustainable practices. Modern alternatives to lead, where appropriate, may also be discussed.
How much does leadwork cost?
The price of leadwork depends on the extent of the work, the complexity of the job, and the amount of lead needed. Contact us for a free, no-obligation quote. We’ll assess your roof and provide a transparent breakdown of all costs involved.
