FAQS
Frequently Asked Questions About Slate Roofing
What slate roofing services do you provide?
We provide new slate roof installations, complete re-roofing, slate repairs, maintenance and the replacement of slipped, cracked or missing slates. Our services also include ridge and hip work, lead flashing and matching new slates with existing materials.
What are the benefits of a slate roof?
Slate is durable, weather-resistant and naturally attractive. A professionally installed slate roof can protect a building for many decades while complementing the appearance and character of both traditional and modern properties.
Can you repair a slate roof?
Yes. Our roof repair services include replacing damaged or missing slates, repairing ridge and hip areas and resolving faults around lead flashing. Prompt repairs can prevent water ingress and further damage.
Can you replace individual missing or broken slates?
Yes. We undertake small repairs as well as complete slate roof replacements. Replacing individual slates promptly can help maintain the roof’s weather protection and prevent damage to the underlying structure.
Can you match replacement slates to my existing roof?
Yes. We will select replacement slates that complement the existing size, colour, thickness and style wherever possible. Careful matching helps maintain a consistent appearance, particularly on traditional properties.
How long does a slate roof last?
A well-installed and properly maintained slate roof can last for many decades. Its lifespan will depend on the type and quality of slate, the standard of installation, exposure to the weather and the condition of the fixings and supporting structure.
How do I know whether my slate roof needs repaired?
Common warning signs include missing or slipped slates, broken pieces around the property, water stains, damp patches, damaged flashing and visible gaps in the roof covering. A professional inspection can establish the extent of the problem.
When should a slate roof be replaced?
Replacement may be appropriate when deterioration is widespread, leaks are recurring, many slates or fixings have failed, or the supporting roof structure requires significant work. If the damage is limited, a targeted repair may be sufficient.
Do you install slate roofs on new properties and extensions?
Yes. We install complete slate roofing systems on new-build properties, extensions and existing buildings undergoing renovation or re-roofing. We can recommend a suitable slate and installation method for the building.
Can you work on traditional properties?
Yes. Our experienced slaters use both traditional and modern techniques. We can undertake work designed to preserve the appearance and character of older properties while providing dependable weather protection.
Do you repair lead flashing on slate roofs?
Yes. We install, repair and replace lead flashing around chimneys, roof junctions and other vulnerable areas. Properly fitted flashing helps prevent rainwater from entering the roof.
Do you provide free slate roof inspections?
Yes. City Roof Scot Ltd provides a free photographic inspection before recommending work. You will receive clear images of visible defects, straightforward advice and a free, no-obligation quotation.
Is your slating work guaranteed?
Yes. Our slating work is completed using quality materials and is covered by guaranteed workmanship. Details of the applicable guarantee will be explained when we provide your quotation.
How much does slate roofing cost?
The cost depends on the roof’s size and design, the type of slate required, accessibility and the condition of the underlying structure. Following an inspection, we will provide a clear quotation based on the work required.
