Slate Roofing in South London & Kent
Natural slate offers exceptional longevity and character, particularly for period and heritage properties. We handle everything from replacing slipped slates to complete slate roof reconstructions.
When You Need Slate Roofing
Slates sliding down into gutters or piling up in the yard after windy weather. Rusted or failing metal nails causing slates to become loose and unaligned. Leaking valleys or deteriorated lead flashing around chimney stacks. Water penetration in older loft spaces due to deteriorating sarking felt.
How We Do It
We inspect the roof to identify damaged slates and check the condition of fixing nails and battens. We supply a detailed quote outlining the necessary slate replacements or structural restoration. We carefully remove broken slates and renew compromised timber or leadwork. We install high-grade slates fixed securely with non-corrosive hooks or nails for long-term stability.
What to Expect
Slate repairs usually take a single day, while full slate roof installations take between 4 to 8 days depending on complexity.
