Slate Roofing in Wells
We cover all aspects of slate roof installation across Wells and the surrounding area.
Welsh Slate Roofing
Welsh slate is the gold standard for UK roofing and suits Wells's period housing stock perfectly. We source quality Welsh slate and install to a high standard with full guarantees.
Reclaimed Slate Roofing
For properties in conservation areas or where matching an existing roof is important, reclaimed slate from Wells demolitions and salvage yards gives an authentic finish.
Slate Tile Repairs
Not every slate roof needs replacing. We carry out individual slate repairs across Wells, sourcing matching tiles for a seamless, invisible result.
Felt Underlay Replacement
During a re-roof, we always replace the felt underlay with a modern breathable membrane — an important upgrade that improves thermal performance and prevents condensation.
Ridge & Hip Repointing
Ridge tiles on slate roofs in Wells often come loose before the slates themselves fail. We repoint and rebed ridge and hip tiles as a standalone job to extend roof life.
Conservation Area Compliant
Many of Wells's older properties sit in conservation areas. We advise on appropriate materials and can work within heritage guidelines set by the local authority.
