Roof art with SS Del Carmen Spanish slate

This little gem was sitting desolate for some time and was beyond repair when we arrived. It  had to be replaced to stop internal damp and rot worsening and affecting the structure.

We setup our scaffold and got to work immediately, removing all old valley gutter and capping first.

Next up the slate and battens were binned, nails removed, rafters swept and gutters cleaned in preparation for the fun part.

We installed new battens, insulation, valley gutter and loaded new slates into position.

We chose to us SS Del Carmen slate from spain, this is high quality and beautiful to handle and install.

The best part about this roof was getting to install a custom pattern through the centre all the way through, each slate hand cut on site by our team.

Knowing that this roof will last another 100 years gives us the extra drive to make sure it looks good and is done well.
