We speak to customers in this position week in and week out, some of whom have also had their lead roof almost stolen by undesirables during its lifetime. Lead theft has unfortunately become common, leaving many homeowners and businesses searching for a safer, more cost-effective solution.To avoid this happening again, and to save money on lead roof replacement, we recommend using fibreglass roofing systems.
