We work with what suits the building
Natural slate on period houses, fibre cement slate where the budget is tighter, concrete and clay tile, standing seam and cladding metal, fibreglass and Lava 20 on flat roofs. If a roof needs two systems joined properly, that is normal work for us.
Pick a material below to see where it is used, what it costs you and where it falls down. Or just ask us and we will tell you what your roof needs.
