Expert Slate Roof Installations for City of London Properties

When you choose Kevington Roofing for your slate roof installation, you're opting for a meticulous and transparent process. We begin with a thorough assessment of your existing roof structure and a detailed discussion of your specific needs, preferred slate type, and budget. Our skilled roofers then carefully remove your old roof covering, inspect and prepare the roof timbers, and install modern, breathable membranes (such as Tyvek or Klober Permo Forte) for superior ventilation and secondary water protection. We then fix treated timber battens, before expertly laying your chosen natural or man-made slate tiles, paying close attention to every detail, including precise cuts, overlaps, and the robust installation of ridge lines, verges, and valleys. We manage the entire project with precision and efficiency, keeping you informed every step of the way.

We offer a wide range of high-quality slate options to suit your property’s style and your budget. For those seeking classic elegance and unparalleled longevity, we work with exquisite natural slates, including robust Welsh slate and beautiful Spanish slate, each offering unique textures and colours. These natural materials provide a truly authentic and enduring finish. Alternatively, for a more uniform look or specific performance requirements, we also expertly install high-quality man-made composite slates. These modern alternatives offer excellent durability, a consistent appearance, and often a more cost-effective solution without compromising on the weatherproof qualities you need. Our team can advise you on the best material for your specific project.

Even the most robust slate roof can, over time, experience issues due to extreme weather or general wear. A slipped or cracked slate might seem minor, but it can quickly lead to significant water ingress and internal damage. Our expertise extends beyond new installations to comprehensive slate roof repairs and essential maintenance. We quickly identify the source of any problem, whether it’s a damaged slate, failing leadwork around chimneys, or issues with your gutters. Our team can source matching slates to seamlessly replace damaged ones, carry out expert leadwork repairs, and re-point or rebuild chimneys. Regular maintenance, including safe moss removal and annual inspections, helps prevent costly future repairs and extends the life of your beautiful slate roof.
