 27 years ago my business covered these steeples with triple lock standing seam lead coated copper...it was stone and the acid rain was deteriorating the mortar/stone so it had to be pointed periodically and chunks of stone were falling off once in a while..... I told them a lead coated copper roof would last forever and they would be done with it if they had me do it. As far as I know every piece of copper we put on has stayed in place.... Foghorn says, I say, I say, boy, I am not going up there!!!
If your mind draws a blank, turn off the sound, because ya can't learn a thing if you're doin all the talkin

Does the lead and copper screw up cell phone reception?
My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

Does the lead and copper screw up cell phone reception? Its like a big tin foil hat for the church....  Believe it or not there were no cell phones when that job was done.

Now that's a roofing job !
You only live once, so get over it!
Tactics may change but the goal remains the same.

Foghorn says, I say, I say, boy, I am not going up there!!! Lol you got that right. A church in a neighboring town had a steeple similar to that but it had shingles on it . I was riding by it with my boss at that time and I noticed the shingles were looking rough. I told him you bid that thing you are going to be doing it without me. I'm not terribly afraid of heights but that thing made me pucker up.
