What Is Slating & Tiling?

Slating and tiling are traditional pitched-roof coverings using natural slate or roof tiles to create a strong, weatherproof finish. They protect your home, boost kerb appeal, and can last decades when fitted correctly.

When Is Slating & Tiling Necessary?

Slating and tiling are needed when tiles/slates crack, slip, or the roof starts leaking, or during refurbishments and full replacements. They’re also the go-to choice for pitched roofs on homes across the UK for long-term durability.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What’s the difference between slate and roof tiles?

Slate is a natural stone that’s lightweight, premium-looking, and can last 60–100+ years. Tiles (concrete or clay) are cost-effective, durable, and widely used across the UK. We’ll recommend the best fit for your roof and budget.

Why are my tiles/slates slipping or breaking?

Common causes include storm damage, worn fixings, failing mortar, poor installation, or degraded underlay/battens. We’ll inspect the roof properly, replace damaged units, and secure vulnerable areas to prevent repeat issues and leaks.

Do you need to replace the whole roof if a few tiles are damaged?

Not always. If the structure, membrane, and battens are in good condition, targeted repairs can be ideal. If there’s widespread wear or ongoing leaks, a partial or full re-roof may be the smarter long-term solution.
