Win a Day in the Workshop with Kris @LeadworkSW
How the Day Is Run
This is primarily a full day in the workshop with me, which allows us to cover around 99% of everyday leadwork, planning, pricing, and setup without relying on weather or live site conditions.
If suitable site work is available and weather allows, we may step out to site or work externally, but this isn’t guaranteed. Ultimately this is tailored to you.
This is something I’ve wanted to do for a while. A full day in the workshop, on the tools, talking leadwork, roofing, work, business, and everything that goes with it.
No classroom. No pressure. No nonsense. Just a proper day going through the sort of work I do every week, how I do it, and why.
A lot of people have asked me to run training, so this is my first venture into it. If it works well, I’ll expand it into more days, different formats, and eventually bookable training later in the year.
It’s meant to be useful, relaxed, and enjoyable — a good day on the tools,, asking questions, and picking up things you can actually take away and use.
Who This Day Is For
This day is aimed at:
• Trainees
• Improvers
• Roofers
• Anyone wanting to build confidence in everyday lead tasks
Advanced leadworkers are welcome, but this isn’t an advanced or specialist course. If you’re very experienced, it may turn into more of a shared knowledge day.
What the Day Can Cover
The day is flexible and tailored to you. We can cover anything I deal with regularly, including:
• Basic leadwork
• flashings
• Lead welding
• Lead dressing
• Making common lead units
• Flat roofing basics
• Materials used and why
• Planning work on roofs
• Pricing jobs and quoting
• Tools required and setup
• Van organisation
• Running jobs day to day
• Problem solving and real-world scenarios
We can also spend time on the content and business side if that’s something you’re interested in:
• Social media for trades
• Building a following
• Filming on site and in the workshop
• Camera setups and workflow
• Editing basics
• Managing pages and posting consistently
