FAQs

Roofing Questions, Answered

How long does a slate roof last?

Natural slate can last up to 100 years when properly installed and maintained. Synthetic and fibre cement options typically last 30 to 50 years. We advise on the best option for your property and budget.

Is natural slate better than synthetic slate?

Both have their merits. Natural slate offers an unmatched lifespan and appearance but costs more. Synthetic slate replicates the look, is lighter and more competitively priced. The right choice depends on your property, budget and preferences.

Can a slate roof be repaired rather than replaced?

In many cases, yes. Individual slates can be replaced and lead flashing repaired without a full replacement. We inspect your roof and give you an honest recommendation.

How much does a slate roof cost?

Costs vary with the type of slate, the size of your roof and the complexity of the installation. We offer free site visits and quotes tailored to your requirements.

Are slate roofs suitable for all property types?

Slate works well across a wide range of property styles. Natural slate suits period and heritage properties particularly well, while synthetic and composite options work beautifully on more contemporary homes.

Do slate roofs require much maintenance?

Once properly installed, slate is a low maintenance roofing solution. Periodic inspections to check for slipped slates, deteriorating flashing or blocked gutters are recommended to keep your roof in good condition and extend its lifespan.
