Roofing in Tunbridge Wells
Slate That Keeps Its Clean Lines for Decades
Looking for slate roofs in Tunbridge Wells? We work on homes across Tunbridge Wells and the surrounding area from our base in Kent, and every job starts with a proper look at the roof and a written price before any work is booked.
Slate suits the Victorian and Edwardian terraces found across Gravesend, Tunbridge Wells and the older parts of south east London, and it works just as well on a modern build. Natural slate is long lasting and looks right on a period property; fibre-cement slate is lighter, more affordable and gives a consistent finish.
When an older slate roof starts to fail, the slates themselves are often fine. It is the nails that corrode, which is why slates begin to slip one at a time. We assess whether a repair will last or whether the roof is better stripped and re-slated, salvaging sound slates for reuse where that makes sense. New slates are set out to the correct gauge and fixed securely, with lead or dry-fix details at the junctions so the finished roof stays watertight.
