We try to source reclaimed slate whenever possible, as this not only helps the environment but can also reduce the overall building cost for you.
We believe in using environmentally sound roofing solutions, as we understand how difficult the slate roofing industry is due to over demand.
However, we do provide the option of purchasing new slate, which can come from various locations around the world.
Even in these instances, we only choose slate from the best sources.
If you want real slate without the environmental issues though, maybe you would like to go for one of our most recent roofing options - lookalike slate.
Hayley Peacock— I genuinely wouldn't hesitate in recommending Chris & his guys. Always here on time
Slate is a natural material which lends itself to use in building construction, especially as a roof covering because of its main characteristics.
Slate is a waterproof and durable material with outstanding beauty.
A slate itself can last several hundreds of years.
Which is why reclaimed slate is so popular, as a roofing material, it will outlast the nails that fix it, and the building it is covering.
At The Roofers we have been working slate for decades, and in our opinion, no roof looks as well or lasts as long.

Roofing Slates are a type of roof shingle, or more specifically a type of roof tile.
Slate has a beautiful and natural appearance and a good slate should be relatively flat and easy to overlay - minimising gaps.
As slate has an extremely low water absorption index (less than 0.4%), this makes it more resistant to frost damage and of course a very good and robust roofing material.
Typically slate roof tiles are usually fixed either with nails (UK method), or with hooks (Spanish method).
A Red Stag new slate roof comes with a 25 year guarantee (again backed by our suppliers), but we strongly believe you would have a long lasting weathertight roof with a lifespan of around 80-100 years.
