Natural Slate on W6 roofs
Period properties, conservation areas, and any roof surface where the original covering was slate. We reach Hammersmith Broadway in around 13 km from our Hampton base, so material delivery and survey scheduling are straightforward here.
Typical natural slate defects in W6
- Hairline-cracked slates from past foot traffic
- Nail-sickness — original iron nails corrode and slates slip in pairs
- Imitation slates (fibre-cement) on past repairs can mismatch in colour
Our approach: We re-use sound slates wherever possible, source matched Welsh or Spanish slate for replacements, and copper-nail rather than steel for longevity.
