Ignoring these issues can quickly lead to much more significant and costly damage to your roof structure and the interior of your home or commercial property.

Why Choose Us?
Why Your Burton Upon Trent Home Needs Specialist Slate Roof Care
Slate is a unique roofing material, famed for its longevity – often lasting over a century! Its natural properties make it incredibly resilient, but it also requires a specific skill set for repair. Unlike modern interlocking tiles, slate is laid individually, often requiring a keen eye for detail and traditional methods to blend new repairs seamlessly with existing work. Whether your property is a historic home in the heart of Burton upon Trent, a modern build in Hilton, or a commercial premise near Uttoxeter, our team understands the nuances of slate. We pride ourselves on preserving the character and structural strength of your roof, ensuring it continues to protect your property effectively for many years to come. We also work with properties right across our service area, from Melbourne to Mickleover, ensuring all slate roofs receive the expert attention they deserve.

Who We Are
Common Problems with Slate Roofs We Resolve
Over our more than 20 years in the roofing industry, we've seen every issue a slate roof can present. Here are some of the frequent problems we expertly fix:
- Slipped or Missing Slates: This is a common issue, often due to high winds or failing fixings. We carefully re-fix or replace individual slates, ensuring a perfect match for both protection and appearance.
- Cracked or Broken Slates: Impact damage or freeze-thaw cycles can cause slates to crack. Our team removes the damaged slate and installs a new one, maintaining your roof's waterproof barrier.
- Lead Flashing Issues: Around chimneys, valleys, or dormer windows, lead flashing is vital for waterproofing. If it’s perished or poorly installed, leaks can occur. We carry out expert leadwork, including step flashing and lead aprons, ensuring durable seals.
- Mortar Failure (Ridge/Gable Tiles): The mortar bedding on ridge tiles or gable ends can deteriorate, allowing water ingress. We re-bed and repoint these critical areas for renewed stability and protection.
- Underlayment Damage: Beneath the slates, the roofing felt or breather membrane can degrade, particularly on older roofs. While a full re-roof might be needed for extensive damage, we can often repair localised sections to prevent further water ingress.
