Slate: A Timeless Choice

Slate is a natural, metamorphic rock that has been used for roofing for centuries. It is renowned for its durability, resistance to weathering, and attractive appearance. Welsh slate, in particular, is highly prized for its quality and is often used for high-end roofing projects.

Half round slate is a type of slate that is cut to a uniform thickness, typically 4-6 mm. It is a popular choice for roofing due to its attractive appearance and durability. Half round slate is often used for traditional and heritage roofing projects.
