Pitched Roofing

Slate and Tile Roofing: The Superior Choice

Roofing is more than just a cover over our heads; it's a statement of style, longevity, and sustainability. Slate and tile roofing, two of the most coveted roofing materials today, tick all these boxes. Here is why they’re the preferred choice for many homeowners.

1. Durability: One of the primary reasons homeowners opt for slate or tile roofing is their unmatched durability. The average roof might last 20-30 years, but a slate roof can endure for up to 150 years, and tile roofs aren't far behind with a lifespan of 50-70 years.

2. Long-term Value: While the initial cost may be higher, the long-term value of slate and tile roofing is incomparable. Think about it: over a century of protection without the need for frequent replacements or major repairs. It's an investment that pays off year after year.

3. Aesthetic Appeal: Whether you’re after the timeless beauty of grey slate or the modern flair of colourful tiles, there's something for everyone. With a range of shades, textures, designs, and fixing methods, homeowners are spoilt for choice, ensuring that their homes stand out for all the right reasons.

4. Protection and Sustainability: Beyond their aesthetic and durability attributes, slate and tile roofs offer superior protection against fire. Additionally, natural slate is the green choice for roofing, boasting the lowest carbon footprint and environmental impact.
