Slate repairs run from around two hundred pounds for a handful of tiles up to several thousand for re-slating a full elevation. Natural slate costs more than concrete tile to source and fit, especially where reclaimed slate is needed to match an existing roof.

02 / HOW IT WORKS
  1. 01Match the material

    We identify the slate or tile type and source a genuine match, including reclaimed slate where needed.

  2. 02Assess the extent

    One loose tile or a whole elevation shedding - we check what's actually failing underneath too.

Roof Slating & Tiling FAQs

Can't find it? Call us on 07884 463991

Do you work with natural slate?

Yes, natural slate repair, matching and re-slating is a core part of what we do given how much of Central Scotland's housing stock uses it.

Can you source reclaimed slate to match my roof?

Yes, for conservation properties or older roofs we source reclaimed slate to match colour and size properly.

How much does slate roofing cost?

From around £200 for a handful of repaired tiles up to several thousand pounds for re-slating a full elevation.

Do you also work with concrete tile?

Yes, alongside natural slate we repair and replace concrete tile roofs.

Why is my roof shedding tiles one at a time?

Usually fixing nails have corroded or the underlay has failed - a sign the roof may need more than a one-off repair.

Do you handle conservation area properties?

Yes, we're used to working sensitively on conservation-area streets where material matching matters.

What's the difference in cost between slate and concrete tile?

Natural slate costs more to source and fit than concrete tile, particularly where reclaimed slate is required.

Can you re-slate a full roof slope?

Yes, from a single tile repair up to re-slating a complete elevation.

Do you check the roof structure, not just the tiles?

Yes, we check what's underneath as part of any slate or tile assessment, not just the visible covering.
