Slate Roofing Repair – QSR Roofers UK
Slate roofs are known for their elegance, longevity, and durability, often lasting over a century with proper care. However, even the strongest slate tiles can crack, loosen, or slip due to age, weather exposure, or poor installation. Timely repairs are essential to preserve the integrity and beauty of your roof.
At QSR Roofers, based in Wickford, Essex, we specialise in professional slate roofing repairs for both heritage and modern buildings. Our expert team brings years of experience working with natural and synthetic slate, delivering precise repairs that blend seamlessly with your existing roof.
A damaged slate roof may not always show immediate leaks, but even a single broken tile can lead to serious issues like water penetration, rotting timbers, or insulation damage. Our thorough inspections identify all problem areas, ensuring we fix the root cause, not just the visible damage.
Common Slate Roofing Problems We Repair:
Cracked, broken, or missing slates
Loose or slipped tiles due to rusted nails (“nail sickness”)
