Lead work is a common element used on the roofs in old and new buildings. Lead is a heavy metal that is soft and malleable and can take any shape when heated. However, when they harden or are converted into sheets, they can easily last for about 80-90 years and even more. It also does not rust easily and is non-combustible, making it perfect for use in the roof. Because of its reliable properties and its ability to handle different weather conditions, particularly for Basingstoke, it is used for different roofing purposes in many different ways.
