A roofer chap, who normally works in France, is finishing off a steel box section flat roof between two not quite parallel brick walls at my work. He's asked to use zinc as the flashing rather than code 3 lead. Apart from the fact I haven't found it for him yet, what advantages are there in zinc over lead?
Who stocks it in UK? The local company who supplied the roofing sheets insist he means folded galvanise steel sheet but I'm sure he means plain zinc as I have seen it use d on one of those tv programs, probably grand designs.
