Traditional Leadwork & Copper Roofing

Lead & Copper Flashing

Durable, watertight flashing for chimneys, valleys and roof junctions — in traditional lead or standing seam copper.

Where roofs fail first — done properly

Chimneys and roof junctions take a beating from weather and need reliable protection. Our lead and copper flashings provide watertight seals that stop leaks and further damage before they start.

They sit neatly with your building’s period features, preserving charm while doing the job properly — using precise welding and seaming methods to create strong, long-lasting connections.

Why choose H.C Roofing for this

The same standard of craft we bring to every heritage job in Sydney.

Watertight, first time

Correctly formed flashing is the single biggest factor in stopping roof leaks.

Lead or copper

We carry out flashing work in either material, matched to your building and budget.

Welded, not just sealed

We weld and boss joints rather than relying on sealant that fails over time.

Traditional Leadwork

Lead Capping

Durable, weathertight capping for parapets, chimneys and walls — formed and dressed on site to fit your building exactly.

Pb · Lead Capping

Protecting exposed edges, the traditional way

Parapets, chimney stacks and exposed brick or stonework take the worst of Sydney’s weather. Lead capping seals these edges against water ingress, while sitting neatly with your building’s original profile.

We hand-form and dress every piece of lead capping on site, so it follows the exact line of your wall or chimney — no off-the-shelf sections that don’t quite fit.

Traditional Leadwork

Lead Cladding

Vertical lead cladding for dormers, feature walls and heritage facades — a traditional finish that weathers beautifully over time.

Pb · Lead Cladding

A traditional finish for dormers and feature walls

Lead cladding brings a distinctive, long-lasting finish to dormers, bay windows and feature walls — a material heritage buildings have relied on for centuries.

Each panel is hand-formed and fixed using traditional methods, so the finished cladding develops the same soft, weathered patina you’d expect on a building of real age.

Suited to listed buildings

A material heritage bodies recognise and approve for sympathetic restoration.

 
Traditional Leadwork

Lead Capping

Decorative lead cornice detailing for heritage facades — period-accurate profiles, hand-formed to match your building’s original design.

Pb · Lead Cornice

Period-accurate detailing, hand-formed

Cornice work is often one of the most visible details on a heritage facade, and one of the least forgiving if it’s done wrong. We take the time to match original profiles precisely.

Whether it’s a repair to existing cornice work or a full restoration, we form each section by hand to preserve the character of your building’s facade.

Careful, patient work

Cornice detailing is slow, precise work, and we treat it that way.
