Skilled Leadwork for Long-Lasting Protection
Lead Roofing & Leadwork in Ipswich & Suffolk
Lead has been used in roofing for centuries thanks to its strength, flexibility and durability. When installed correctly, leadwork can last for decades and provide unbeatable protection against the elements. At Ipswich Roofing Company, we specialise in all aspects of lead roofing and lead flashing across Ipswich and Suffolk, combining traditional techniques with modern standards for a watertight, professional finish.
Lead is commonly used around chimneys, valleys, dormers and roof joints — areas most vulnerable to leaks if not properly sealed. Our experienced team carries out precise, high-quality leadwork that ensures these parts of your roof stay fully protected. Whether you need a repair to damaged flashing or a complete new lead installation, we can provide a tailored solution for your property.
We understand that poor-quality leadwork can cause recurring leaks and structural issues. That’s why we only use premium-grade lead and proven fitting methods to make sure every detail is secure and built to last. From small patch repairs to larger-scale lead roofing projects, we bring the same level of care and expertise to every job.
As local roofers in Ipswich, we’ve worked on homes of all ages, including heritage properties that require careful, sympathetic leadwork. Whatever your needs, you can rely on us to deliver professional results that not only protect your home but also respect its character.
