Specialist Lead Burning & Heritage Lead Work.

At J.W. Scudder Roofing Specialists, we offer true specialist lead burning - a traditional craft at the highest level of roofing workmanship.

Unlike standard lead installation, lead burning involves the precise welding of lead to create seamless joints, forming a single continuous piece. This delivers a cleaner finish, eliminates weak points, and ensures long-term durability.

This is a highly skilled process that demands experience, control, and a deep understanding of the material - something that cannot be replicated through shortcuts.

Our work has been carried out on high-end properties across London, including Mayfair and Kensington, where quality and attention to detail are essential.

From bespoke details and box formations to complex junctions and heritage restorations, every project is approached with the same mindset:

Do it properly. Do it once.
