Slate And Tile Roofing in Egham, Surrey

There’s something truly special about the look of a natural slate roof, isn't there? It’s a classic choice that fits perfectly with the character of Egham’s older homes. We specialise in sourcing high-quality Welsh and Spanish slate that doesn't just look the part but is built to last 75 years or more. Most homeowners we talk to are surprised to learn how many options there are, from traditional stone to modern fibre cement slates that offer a similar look for a smaller budget. We take great care to match new slates with your existing roofline, which is especially important if you’re living in one of the local conservation areas. It's about preserving that Surrey charm while ensuring your home is modern-day dry.

Are you trying to decide between traditional clay and modern concrete tiles? It’s one of the most common questions we get asked when we’re out on a site visit. Clay tiles, whether they’re hand-made for that authentic texture or machine-made for precision, offer a timeless warmth that ages beautifully. On the other hand, concrete tiles are incredibly robust and offer a huge range of colours and styles to suit any budget. No matter which you choose, we ensure every installation meets the strict BS5534 standards for wind resistance and water tightness. We’ll even help you navigate Part L Building Regulations to make sure your new roof is helping you save on those rising energy bills. Why not ask us for a free, no-obligation survey to see what would work best for your house?

Imagine waking up after a windy night to find a couple of your roof tiles lying on the driveway. It’s a headache nobody needs, but it's exactly what we're here for. High winds coming off the hills can easily rattle loose older tiles or perish old mortar. Our team provides a rapid response across Egham and Runnymede to sort out those annoying leaks and slipped slates before they turn into a major structural problem. We don’t just slap on a bit of cement and hope for the best; we look at the underlying causes, like worn lead flashing or blocked valleys. We're proud to be Checkatrade and Bark approved, so you know when we say a repair is fixed, it’s actually fixed. Don't let a small drip become a big bill—call us on 01306 774541 today.

Roofing has come a long way since many of the houses in Surrey were first built. While we love traditional techniques, we also embrace modern systems that make your roof much more reliable. We’re big fans of dry ridge and dry verge systems, which use mechanical fixings rather than traditional mortar that can crack and fall out over time. When we strip back an old roof, we replace those old, torn felts with high-performance breathable membranes. These clever layers let your house 'breathe' to prevent condensation in the loft while acting as a second line of defence against water ingress. It’s these small details—the ones you can’t see from the ground—that really make the difference in how long your roof will last.
