Frequently asked questions
Clear answers to common questions about slating & tiling.
Is slate roofing better than roof tiles?
Natural slate is durable, low maintenance and well suited to many traditional properties, while clay and concrete roof tiles offer a broad choice of profiles and price points. The best roof covering depends on pitch, structure, planning considerations, appearance and budget.
How long do slate and tiled roofs last?
A well-installed natural slate roof can last many decades, while the lifespan of clay or concrete roof tiles varies by product and exposure. Good detailing, ventilation and timely replacement of slipped or cracked slates and tiles all help the roof last longer.
Can new roof tiles be matched to an existing roof?
In many cases a close match can be sourced by checking the material, profile, colour and dimensions. Weathering means a new tile may initially look different. For repairs to older roofs, reclaimed slate or tiles may provide a closer visual match where suitable stock is available.
