FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is slating and tiling in roofing?

Slating and tiling is the installation of durable roof coverings using natural slate or interlocking tiles. It provides strong, weather-resistant protection while enhancing the appearance and value of your property with a traditional or modern finish.

How long do slate and tile roofs last?

A well-installed slate roof can last 75–100+ years, while quality tiled roofs typically last 40–60 years. Lifespan depends on materials, installation quality, and regular maintenance to prevent damage from weathering or slipped tiles.

When should slating or tiling be repaired or replaced?

Repairs are needed when tiles are cracked, slipped, or missing, or if you notice leaks or damp patches inside. Widespread damage, ageing materials, or recurring issues may indicate a full roof replacement is the most cost-effective solution.
