Slate Roof Repair Questions Answered

Expert guidance from slate roofing specialists.

We maintain relationships with slate reclamation yards and work with suppliers who carry discontinued stock. For Welsh slate roofs, original quarries often still supply matching material. For very rare slates, we source visually compatible equivalents and, where possible, pre-weather them to blend with the existing roof.
Common failure modes include: nail fatigue (rusting of ferrous nails causing slate slippage), impact damage from fallen branches or foot traffic, frost damage on permeable slates, and failed lead flashings at abutments. London's climate — wet winters, occasional freezing — accelerates these failure mechanisms.
Period slates are often fixed with iron nails that rust over decades — when the nail corrodes, the slate falls. Modern stainless steel fixings prevent this recurrence. Repairing period roofs also requires careful matching — slate thickness, length, and colour affect the finished appearance. Heritage expertise ensures repairs enhance rather than detract from the property.
Yes, slate re-roofing is a popular upgrade on London properties where homeowners prefer the aesthetic of slate over concrete tiles. We assess the existing structure, reinforce rafters if necessary, install new counterbattens and underlay, and fix natural or fibre cement slates to BS 5534 specifications.
Annual inspection of nail fixings, especially at verge and ridge courses. Moss clearance from north-facing slopes to prevent moisture retention. Flashings checked for deterioration. We provide maintenance contracts including photography and small repairs as part of the service.
We have extensive experience with conservation-area and listed properties across London. We specify appropriate slate types, use lime mortar for bedding where historically correct, and work with conservation officers to ensure compliance. All repairs are documented for building regulation purposes.
