Bournemouth metal roofing construction
Lead has been utilised as a roofing material for hundreds of years, and it’s easy to tell why. Going as far back as to be used by the Romans in 27BC, lead has certainly proved itself as being a worthy material to use for roofing. Lead can be used as a roofing material for domestic, commercial, and industrial properties.
Using lead metal as the basis for a roof is a fantastic idea as it is an incredibly durable construction material, and will protect your property for years to come. Other benefits of employing lead metal roofing include:
- Flexibility and can be moulded into any roofing shape
- Great barrier against the outside weather elements
- Corrosion resistant
- Excellent sealant properties
- Recyclable
- Lasts three times longer than other roofing materials
- Very lightweight compared to other roofing materials
- Quicker and easier to install than other roofing materials
- Fire resistant
Lead metal roofing construction
At ProRoofing, our metal roofing construction has been performed for dozens of years. Our team of expert tradesmen have been laying metal roofing in Bournemouth for over 15 years, and in that time, we have really perfected the best method for creating roofs that our customers always love. Lead roofing is fabricated by layering sheets of metal onto a base foundation that is made from timber.
Before every metal roofing construction project takes place, our team conducts a thorough risk assessment, along with a health and safety survey that complies the current regulations. If any structural work needs to take place before the laying of the lead metal sheets, our team of carpenters will perform the labour. During the construction period, ongoing site management will take place to make sure that health and safety is consistently adhered to.
