When you need
a Slate Re-Roof
Extensive Broken or Slipped Slates
If individual repairs are no longer cost-effective due to widespread damage from age, storms, or general wear.
Persistent Leaks
Despite isolated repairs, if you're continually battling water ingress, a full re-roof is often the most reliable long-term solution.
Age of Roof
While durable, even slate roofs have a lifespan. If yours is particularly old (e.g., over 80-100 years and showing significant wear), a replacement is a wise investment.
"Nail Sickness"
When the nails holding the slates deteriorate and fail, causing slates to slip, indicating the need for a full re-nail or re-roof.
Sagging or Deteriorating Structure
If your roof's underlying structure is compromised, a re-roof is essential for safety and integrity.
Improved Home Value & Aesthetics
A new slate roof significantly enhances your home's curb appeal, preserves its architectural heritage, and adds considerable value, particularly important in Norwich's property market.
