Frequently Asked Questions

What Are the Benefits of Lead Roof Flashing?

Traditional lead flashing is incredibly weather resistant, and is well known for its durability. It’s also easily recyclable and reclaimable, making it a more sustainable option than synthetic alternatives.

As a long term solution, lead flashing is a cost effective and durable way alongside flashing tape to waterproof your home for many years.

Lead is also incredibly easy to use. It is non-corrosive and flexible, doesn’t lift in high winds and it can withstand – and can be fitted in – any sort of weather.

Why Choose the Code 4 Lead Roll?

The Code 4 Lead Roll by Midland Lead is considerably more flexible and resistant to wear when compared to the older Code 3 option due to its increased gauge. A widespread classic choice, it has a long history in the industry because it is very easy to extract, work with, and smelt.

This makes it a suitable choice for almost every type of pitched roofing including vertical cladding, dormer roofs and cheeks, as well as a variety of flashings (such as hip, ridge, chimney, apron, and cover ones).

The Code 4 Lead Roll is 1.8 mm thick (which is an increase of 36%) and weighs 20.41 kg per square metre. This extra thickness means additional resistance to thermal movement which enables you to increase the maximum length of flashing by 50%.

What Can Lead Flashing Be Used For?

Our CE mark EN14783 shows that our machine cast and rolled lead sheet is suitable for all roofing and cladding applications, including flat and pitched roofing, cladding, flashing, guttering and fine detail work for aesthetic appeal.

In roofing, lead can help to prevent rainwater leaks and enhance the life of a property with essential support.

The high quality of lead means that it is also often used for radiation protection and sound-proofing.

 Does Your Lead Roof Flashing Come with a Guarantee?

The Midland Lead machine cast lead sheet is approved by the British Board of Agrément (BBA) and comes with a 60-year guarantee.

Our rolled (or milled) lead sheet conforms to BS EN 12588 and has a 50-year guarantee. But the working life expectancy of all types of lead sheet is much longer. Even at a conservative estimate, it should last you well over a hundred years. This makes lead flashing a worthy investment for your home.
