JG Leadworks & Roofing is a trusted roofing specialist serving London and the Home Counties, including Kent, Surrey, West Sussex, and Berkshire. For decades, we have combined traditional craftsmanship with modern roofing innovation, providing solutions that protect homes, safeguard heritage buildings, and support complex public-sector and commercial projects.
Every roof we work on is delivered with compliance, durability, and safety as its foundation. Our clients rely on us not just to fix or install a roof, but to provide lasting assurance: watertight protection, regulatory compliance, and workmanship that will stand the test of time.
Every detail, from a hand-cut slate to a lead valley, is executed with precision.
All work aligns with UK Building Regulations, heritage standards, and manufacturer guidance, guaranteeing safety and warranty protection.
We treat every roof as if it were our own, ensuring clients know their property is in safe hands.
From practical to luxurious options, we cater to all tastes and budgets.
Our expertise lies in balancing traditional craft with modern roofing systems.
On one hand, we are highly skilled in heritage methods—using Welsh slate, handmade clay tiles, and ALM leadwork for conservation-grade restorations. On the other, we are trained and approved in advanced systems including Kemper and Westwood liquid roofing, Supreme and IKO felt systems, Proteus, and Nicholson ventilation solutions.
This blend means we can deliver sensitive work for English Heritage sites while also installing high-performance systems for modern industrial roofs. Whatever the context, we bring the same discipline: compliance, durability, and professional execution.
