At Webster Roofcare Limited, we understand the importance of a well-crafted roof that not only protects your home but also adds to its aesthetic appeal.

Where We Cover Across Walsall
The Benefits of Slate
Slate is a natural, metamorphic rock that has been used for centuries in roofing due to its exceptional durability and resistance to weathering. Welsh slate, in particular, is renowned for its high quality and is often considered the gold standard for slate roofing. At Webster Roofcare Limited, we source our slate from reputable suppliers to ensure that our customers receive the best possible quality.
Half round slates are a popular choice for many homeowners in Shelfield due to their attractive appearance and ease of installation. These slates are typically 500mm in length and are available in a range of thicknesses, from 4mm to 7mm. We recommend using half round slates for roofs with a pitch of 30 degrees or more to ensure optimal performance.
