Tile and Slate Info

Slate

Slate is a natural product unlike many other roof products, more expensive than artificial man made products I.e. concrete tiles but has a greater life span and is exceptionally durable in comparison. Slates have an expected life span of 75 year compared with as little as a 12 year life span for artificial materials such as concrete tiles. Slate also retains its natural colour even in UV light and is impermeable to water and stands the test of time.

Two of the more popular slates in the UK ‘The Welsh Blue’ and ‘The Welsh Purple’ slates are commonly found on roofs in York. Welsh Slate is generally regarded as the finest slate in the World; it has been used for many centuries on all kinds of buildings and houses. Welsh slate is proven to be the toughest natural slate product known to man.  It has the longest lifecycle when compared to any other slate and is available in a wide variety of colours.

This is the only type of slate we recommend to use. Many roofing contractors carry out roof repairs and replace roofs with cheap alternatives I.e. Spanish slate or Chinese slate which is less durable and has a shorter live span.

Maintenance
Slate roofs should last 75 years or more and require little, if maintenance if installed correctly.

Clay & Concrete Tiles

Tiles are a man made substitute for state and was formed as a cheaper alternative to using slate our roofs. There is a wide range of clay and concrete and tiles and fittings available. There are interlocking and double lap tile available from several suppliers and cost vary from tile to tile, Suppliers like Sandtoft, Redland, Marley Russell to name a few. These tiles are mainly machine made and Concrete tile technology has developed different colours and finishes which replicate the appearance of slate and other traditional roof cover as well as many different colours.

Also available are traditional Reclaimed tiles which are usually hand crafted I.e. Pantiles or French Gaelic Tiles. These again are both widely used around the York area and one of our company’s specialities.

Maintenance
Tiled roofs can last up to 50 years and require little, if installed correctly. Also with tiles you can install dry verge and Ridge systems which make the roof mortar free.
