Slate Roofing: A Timeless Choice

Slate has been a popular roofing material since ancient times, and its popularity endures to this day. Available in various sizes, including 500mm x 250mm, 600mm x 300mm, and 700mm x 350mm, slate tiles are known for their durability and resistance to weathering. Our slate roofing services in Lovington offer a range of benefits, including:

  • Natural, high-quality materials that give your property a unique and attractive appearance
  • Closed joints to prevent water ingress and ensure a watertight seal
  • Long-lasting performance, with some slate roofs lasting for over 100 years
  • Resistance to extreme weather conditions, including heavy rain, snow, and high winds

Tile roofing is another popular choice for properties in Lovington, offering a range of benefits, including:

  • A cost-effective alternative to slate, with a lower upfront cost
  • A wide range of styles and designs to suit various architectural styles
  • Easy to install and maintain, with a lap joint system that allows for easy replacement of individual tiles
  • A key benefit of tile roofing is its ability to withstand extreme weather conditions, including heavy rain and high winds

For those seeking a high-quality slate product, API-slate is an excellent option. Available in various sizes, including 600mm x 300mm, API-slate is known for its exceptional durability and resistance to weathering. Our API-slate roofing services in Lovington offer a range of benefits, including:

  • A natural, high-quality material that gives your property a unique and attractive appearance
  • A closed joint system to prevent water ingress and ensure a watertight seal
  • Long-lasting performance, with some API-slate roofs lasting for over 100 years
  • Resistance to extreme weather conditions, including heavy rain, snow, and high winds

When installing slate or tile roofing, it's essential to consider the quantity and head lap of the materials. The head lap refers to the overlap between adjacent tiles or slates, and it's crucial to ensure that this is sufficient to prevent water ingress. Our experienced roofers in Lovington will work with you to determine the optimal quantity and head lap for your roofing project.

General Practice and Extra Half Lap

However, in some cases, an extra half lap may be required to provide additional protection against extreme weather conditions.
