Why slate roofing

Slate roofing is a go-to choice for many businesses and homes in Cornwall. And for good reason. Quarried from natural stone, slate roofs can last for over a century. They’re also highly resistant to fire and offer protection against adverse weather – something we know quite a bit about in Cornwall in wintertime.

They’re available in a wide variety of colours, textures and sizes, so if you’re looking for slate roofing in Cornwall in a traditional, rustic appearance or a more modern and sleek design, you can definitely get the desired effect.

Our services

Every roof should be fit for purpose and look beautiful, but it’s far too easy to take a quality slate and make the job look bad.

We take a huge amount of care in the perimeter and valley details around the tiles, installing them correctly. We also carefully grade all of our tiles according to thickness and ensure they run in a perfectly straight line. Easier said than done – but this is what we do time and again.

Summit Roofing Solutions offers new installations, repairs and replacements in slate roofing.

Choosing your materials

There are many types of natural slate, available in various colours and grades.

They also come in different sizes. The most common are:

Natural slate

600mm x 300mm
500mm x 250mm
400mm x 200mm.

Natural slate can be fastened in two ways – with copper nails or with a stainless steel hook system.

Ask us to show you some natural slate samples, so you can choose the right option for your property.

Manmade slate

Man-made slate, also known as cement fibre slate, is an affordable alternative to natural slate.

Although it doesn’t have quite as long a life as natural slate, good-quality products can last up to 60 years. Also, the manufacturing process results in a durable, uniform appearance.

Manmade slate is available in:

600mm x 300mm
500mm x 250mm.

Why not ask us to show you some man-made slate samples, so you can get the right look for your job?
