What to consider

Slate roof repairs deal with broken, slipped or missing slates and the details around them. Slates can remain sound while their fixings deteriorate, so the pattern of movement matters when deciding between individual replacements and wider work.

01

Identify the slate and fixing condition

Natural and manufactured slates have different requirements. Repairs should use compatible replacement units and a fixing method suitable for the existing roof construction and condition.

02

Check neighbouring details

A slipped slate can reveal problems beyond one unit. Accessible battens, underlay, abutments and neighbouring slates should be considered when the scope is assessed.

03

Preserve the roof’s appearance

Size, thickness and colour influence the finished appearance. An exact match is not always available, so material options should be discussed without assuming every replacement will weather identically.
