Affordable Leadwork In Glasgow
Leadwork prices can be dictated by:
Scope: The larger the areas of flashing to fit or existing metal that requires cladding/guttering will mean an increased work time, thus a higher cost.
Condition: If the lead or metal needs repairs from corrosion, rust and damage, the labour time to fix or replace it will obviously be higher.
Material:The type of materials, such as aluminum, zinc, copper and steel, all price differently.
Height: Working from height can mean the installation of scaffolding, lifts, and additional safety equipment – this also comes with a cost.
Architecture: It goes without saying that multiple roof corners, gables, and slopes create additional work for us and, therefore, will reflect on your price.
Pitch: How steep you roof is – steep roofs are dangerous, we use a harness and extra equipment and, as it is more risky, the prices can be steeper to factor this in. Flat roofs are often a little easier for us to work from.
Specialist skills: Expertise when working on old/listed buildings, often specialised knowledge is needed and work may involve traditional methods this again carries a higher price. lder or listed buildings, and roofs with intricate detailing, often require specialist expertise, which can result in higher costs.
