There are many reasons people look for alternatives to their lead roof with an alternative, ranging from the high financial outlay for lead roofing to insurance concerns and theft of existing roof material, which has sadly become all too common. On the other side of things, lead roofing looks good, is highly flexible around detailing such as downpipes, vents, chimney stacks etc, and lasts a long time. As such we find with both new and replacement roofs, the biggest considerations people have tend to be:
affordability
theft risk
maintaining the traditional lead look
maintaining flexibility around complex details
durability
Having worked with a variety of roofing materials over decades, we firmly believe polymer roofing is the answer. Theftproof, long-lasting, more flexible than lead, and highly affordable, the polymer system mimics the traditional lead look so well, it is known in the industry as 'liquid lead'.
