Slate Roofing: A Natural and Durable Option
Slate is a natural, metamorphic rock that has been used for centuries in roofing due to its durability and attractive appearance. Slate tiles are available in various sizes, including 500mm x 250mm, 600mm x 300mm, and 800mm x 400mm. They are a popular choice for pitched roofs, as they provide excellent weather resistance and can last for up to 100 years or more.

Closed Valley Slate Roofing
Closed valley slate roofing is a popular practice in the UK, where the slates are laid to overlap each other, creating a closed valley. This method provides excellent weather resistance and is a key feature of slate roofing.

API Lap Slate Roofing
API lap slate roofing is a popular method of laying slates, where the slates are overlapped to create a watertight seal. This method provides excellent weather resistance and is a key feature of slate roofing.
Quantity and Head Lap
The quantity and head lap of slates are critical factors in slate roofing. The head lap refers to the overlap between each slate, and the quantity refers to the number of slates required for the roof. Our experienced roofers will ensure that the correct quantity and head lap are used to provide a watertight seal.
