Lead Work and Slate Tiles
Leadwork and slate roofing are among the most durable and time-tested roofing materials available. At Abberdale Roofing, we carry out high-quality leadwork and slate tile installations, repairs and replacements, combining traditional skills with modern best practice to protect your property for decades to come.
These materials are particularly well suited to period properties, listed buildings and homes where longevity and appearance matter.
Leadwork plays a vital role in keeping your roof watertight, particularly around chimneys, valleys, dormers and roof junctions. Poorly installed or deteriorating lead can quickly lead to leaks and internal damage.
Slate is a natural roofing material known for its strength, durability and timeless appearance. Properly installed slate roofs can last well over a century. We work with both natural and man-made slate and take great care to match existing materials where repairs are required.
