Took down a porch last week, ready for rebuilding a new one, it had a flat roof covered in lead, put the lead off the roof on the block paved drive and it has left white marks on the paving. Any ideas how to shift the marks, I have tried soapy water and pressure washer, but there is still a stain,thanks in advance.

its probably not a stain as such but a scratch. It will weather away quite quickly i'd imagine

It should weather, or you might be able to 'encourage' it to disappear with a steam cleaner
