Slate Roofs in Stevenage

Slate Roof Repairs and Re-Slating in Stevenage

One slipped slate is a small job. A dozen spread across the roof is a sign that the fixings are giving up. TNR Roofing Services repairs and re-slates natural slate roofs across Stevenage, and the free survey is where we work out which of those two situations you are dealing with.

Our slaters work on homes and commercial properties across SG1 and SG2, travelling from Hemel Hempstead. When a roof does need re-slating, the slates are stripped by hand and the sound ones go back on, which keeps the look of the roof and reduces the number of new slates you pay for.

Pricing

Factors in a Stevenage Slate Roof Price

The price of slate roofing in Stevenage depends on these factors, all assessed during your free survey:

  • The slate specified, as natural slates vary in source, size and thickness
  • How many of the existing slates are sound enough to reuse
  • The labour in fixing every slate individually with nails or hooks
  • Cutting work at hips, valleys, dormers and verges
  • Any lead flashings and ridge details that need renewing

How it works

How a Stevenage Slate Roof Job Works

What happens from your first call to the finished work.

  1. Free Slate Roof Survey

    We check the slates, nails and battens, look for slipped pieces outside and staining in the loft, and tell you whether targeted repair or re-slating is the better route.

  2. Clear, No-Obligation Quote

    You get a written quote that sets out the slate to be used, how many existing slates we expect to reuse and any leadwork needed, so you can decide without pressure.

  3. Stripping, Sorting and Fixing

    With scaffolding up, slates come off by hand and sound ones are kept. New underlay and battens go on, then the slates are fixed course by course with hips, valleys and flashings finished as we rise.

  4. Final Review

    Once the ridge is secure and the old battens and broken slates are cleared away, we review the completed work with you and confirm everything has been done as agreed.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the slate roof survey free in SG1 and SG2?

Yes. We survey slate roofs anywhere in Stevenage free of charge, and you are under no obligation to accept the quote. We check the slates, nails, battens and any leadwork.

Does reusing slates make re-slating cheaper?

It can. The more of your existing slates that are sound, the fewer new ones are needed, which lowers the material cost. We tell you how many we expect to reuse at the survey.

What if slates come off in a storm?

Call us. Our 24/7 emergency response makes the roof safe and weathertight, then we return to replace the missing slates once conditions allow.

Do I need to tell Stevenage Borough Council about re-slating?

In most cases no, since swapping slate for slate counts as maintenance. Where the property is listed or in a conservation area, speak to Stevenage Borough Council before the slating begins.
