Tiles and slates installation in Nottingham
Slating and tiling are the most commonly used methods for roofing construction and are widely available in a range of different sizes and material compositions. Each has its own set of advantages and disadvantages, so it would be to your benefit to plan and select your roofing style well in advance.
Here’s a rundown of slating and tiling as well as the advantages of each. Tile Installation Available typically in concrete or clay, roofing tiles can be a great option for a modern house as they’re available in a wide range of colours and designs. Our experienced roof tile contractor can help provide you with options suitable for you. Think Spanish or Italian architecture when picking out a tile roof design. Durable and resistant, roofing tiles can also be easy to install as they consist typically of interlocking tiles. Adjustments will need to be made for areas such as roof vents. Aside from vents, you’ll also need to consider placement of battens such that rainwater can freely pass off the tiles. Counter battens are used whenever the roof is pitched to achieve this effect. The flatter the tiles are, the easier they are to install. Dense concentrations of tiles will of course cost more and weigh substantially more, but can provide greater protection. Roofing tar can be used to repair exposed areas if you opt for less dense patterns. Due to their durability and resilience, expect tiled roofs installed by a roof tile contractor to last up to 50 years. |

Slate Installation
As the name implies, slate comes from natural, artificial, or zinc-based metamorphic rock. These roofs are built to last up to a century and are a luxurious option for homeowners, although the cost can be prohibitive.
Slate is customisable in terms of colour and design, although often less so than for tile installations. In any case, they’re certainly an attractive and sleek option for more upscale homes.
The advantages of a slate roof are longevity, resistance to fire and mould, and the ability to be repaired by our specialised house roof contractor as required. Before considering slate roofing, be aware that they tend to be heavier and costlier alternatives and require greater expertise from your roofer to repair than other roofs
