You only have to take a look around you to realise that slate roofing is very much alive and kicking, and despite the emergence of composite roofing materials, people still prefer the look of natural slate. Here are just a few of the benefits you can expect to enjoy when you install a slate roof.

1. Durability – A slate roof will definitely stand the test of time, and you can expect 25-30 years of trouble-free use, with perhaps the odd tile needing to be replaced. If you are looking for affordable roofing services in Stoke, for example, there are roofing companies that specialise in designing and building slate roofs.
2. Elegant Look – There’s little that can beat the sheer elegance of a slate grey roof, which is one of the reasons you see so many on your travels. Next time you are out and about, take note of the roofs you see and you might be surprised at how many are slate.
3. Fire Resistant – Slate is a natural material that offers a high resistance to fire, which is another reason why slate is so popular in the UK. Slate tiles are easily sourced, should you have to replace any due to storm damage, and slate also has a high level of insulation, which really helps with a roof.

Not all roofing companies work with slate, as it requires a level of skill to install, but once you do find a specialist, they can quote you for the project.
