Slate Roofing: A Natural and Durable Option
Slate is a natural, metamorphic rock that has been used for roofing since ancient times. It is prized for its durability, resistance to weathering, and attractive appearance. Slate roofing is available in various sizes, including 600mm x 300mm, 600mm x 400mm, and 800mm x 400mm. Our slate roofing products are sourced from reputable suppliers to ensure the highest quality.
When it comes to slate roofing, there are two main types of lap: closed lap and open lap. Closed lap slate roofing involves overlapping the slates to create a watertight seal, while open lap slate roofing leaves a small gap between the slates. Our experienced roofers will advise on the best lap type for your Pudleigh property.
