We will conduct a thorough inspection of the existing slate roof to assess its condition and determine if replacement is necessary.

We will evaluate the roof’s structural integrity, identify any underlying issues such as rot, water damage, or inadequate support, and determine the scope of the replacement project

Slate choice

Based on the assessment and the homeowner’s preferences, we will advise the best high-quality slates and materials to use for the project.

Roof protection

Temporary roofing or tarping may be installed to protect the interior of the home from exposure to the elements during the replacement process.

Careful slate removal

The existing slates are carefully removed from the roof using specialised tools and techniques to minimise damage to the underlying structure.

New slate replacement

Each slate is carefully placed and secured using appropriate fasteners such as copper nails to ensure proper alignment and spacing.

Finishing touches

Once all the slates are installed, we will perform any necessary finishing touches such as repointing and applying protective coatings or sealants to enhance the roof’s durability and weather resistance.

Final inspection

After completing the replacement work, we will conduct a final inspection of the roof to ensure that all work has been completed to a high standard and that the roof is watertight and structurally sound.

Clean up

Any remaining debris is cleared, and the work area is cleaned up to leave the property in a tidy condition.
