Slating |
Tiling |
Natural Slate is still regarded as the best and most desirable roofing material. Even with the advances in modern building products, roofing slate, when it is properly selected, worked and installed, may prove to be the most permanent part of any building.
Our experienced team of slaters have a vast and varied knowledge of this extremely durable, natural roofing material. We are skilled in crafting a variety of slates, from randomly sized Scottish West Highland, to more uniform slates such as Welsh and Spanish.
From the refurbishment of historical projects to contemporary new builds, the enduring, aesthetic qualities of natural slate make it the ideal roofing solution.

Tile roofing remains one of the premier roofing products available. Time tested worldwide for hundreds of years, with different styles and finishes, roof tiling has proven itself to be a long lasting and attractive product, whilst regular development has ensured roof tiling remains at the forefront of today’s construction industry.
Our roof tilers deliver an economical, efficient service, achieving superb results in impressively short timescales. We frequently use Redland and Marley products for standard projects and when a lightweight, traditional looking alternative is required we often recommend the Decra system.
