Natural slate and clay tile specialists

Natural slate and clay tile are what most older Kent roofs were built with, and they reward being repaired properly rather than replaced with something that looks approximately right.

The usual reason an old slate roof starts shedding is nail sickness: the fixings corrode while the slates themselves remain perfectly sound. It shows up as slates slipping for no obvious reason, generally in the same area first. It is very common on Victorian roofs and on anything within reach of the coast, and it means the covering needs stripping and re-fixing rather than patching, because every remaining nail is the same age.

Sound slates and tiles are salvaged and reused wherever possible and source reclaimed or matching new for the rest. In conservation areas that is often a requirement rather than a preference.

Your Common Slate and Tile Roofing Questions Answered

It is corrosion of the nails holding slates, rather than failure of the slates themselves. The roof starts shedding sound slates for no obvious reason, usually in the same area first. It is very common on Victorian roofs and on anything coastal, and it means the covering needs stripping and re-fixing rather than patching.

Usually. Sound tiles are salvaged from the roof itself where possible, and source reclaimed or matching new for the rest. On conservation and listed property matching is often a requirement rather than a preference, so it is worth establishing early.
