Our Branches
Slate: A Natural and Durable Option
Slate is a natural, metamorphic rock that has been used for roofing since ancient times. Its unique properties make it an ideal choice for roofing, including:
- Durability: Slate is incredibly resistant to weathering, with a lifespan of 50-100 years or more.
- Water resistance: Slate is impermeable to water, making it an excellent choice for areas with high rainfall.
- Low maintenance: Slate roofs require minimal maintenance, as they are resistant to mold, mildew, and insect damage.
We offer a range of slate products, including Spanish and Welsh slate, in various sizes and thicknesses. Our slates are sourced from reputable suppliers to ensure the highest quality and authenticity.
Tiles are another popular choice for roofing in Wedmore, offering a range of benefits, including:
- Affordability: Tiles are generally more affordable than slate, making them a great option for budget-conscious homeowners.
- Variety: Tiles are available in a wide range of styles, colors, and materials, including clay, concrete, and metal.
- Easy installation: Tiles are relatively easy to install, making them a great choice for DIY enthusiasts and professional roofers alike.
We offer a range of tile products, including clay and concrete tiles, in various sizes and profiles. Our tiles are sourced from leading manufacturers to ensure the highest quality and performance.
When choosing between slate and tiles, there are several key considerations to keep in mind, including:
- Pitch: The pitch of your roof will determine the type of slate or tile that is suitable. A minimum pitch of 20° is recommended for slate, while tiles can be used on roofs with a pitch as low as 15°.
- Quantity: The quantity of slate or tiles required will depend on the size and complexity of your roof. Our experienced roofers can provide a detailed estimate and quantity survey to ensure you have the right amount of materials.
- Lap and head lap: The lap and head lap of your slate or tile roof will determine the overall appearance and weather-tightness of your roof. Our roofers will ensure that your roof is installed with the correct lap and head lap to provide a secure and watertight seal.
