Overview

About Slate Roofs

JRD Roofing provides slate roofs across Clitheroe, Lancashire and the surrounding areas. Slate is a classic covering that lasts for generations when it is laid properly. We fit natural slate and quality man-made alternatives, and we repair slipped or broken slates on existing roofs. Because slate work relies on correct nailing and lap, it pays to use roofers who work with it regularly.

  • Natural or man-made slate, supplied and fitted

How we work

Our process

  1. Survey the slate

    We look at the slate type, the nails, and the battens to judge condition.

  2. Repair or re-cover

    Individual slates are refixed, or the roof is stripped and re-laid for a full re-cover.

  3. Detail and finish

    Valleys, flashings, and the ridge are completed to keep the roof watertight.

FAQs

Common questions

Why do slates slip?

Old fixing nails corrode over time (known as nail sickness), which lets slates slip. Refixing or re-covering solves it.

Is man-made slate any good?

Quality man-made slate is lighter and lower cost, and it performs well. Natural slate lasts longest and looks best on period homes.

Can you repair just a few slipped slates?

Yes. We refix or replace individual slipped or broken slates, and we will tell you honestly if nail sickness means a wider re-cover is better value.

How long does a slate roof last?

Natural slate can last 80 to 100 years or more; quality man-made slate typically gives 30 to 50 years. Correct fixing and head-lap make the difference.
