Slate and Tiles in Brick Houses: A Guide to Quality Roofing Solutions
At A1 Roofing Wakefield, we understand the importance of a well-maintained roof in protecting your brick house from the elements. Two popular options for roofing materials are slate and tiles, each with its unique characteristics and benefits.
Slate has been a popular choice for roofing for centuries, and its durability and aesthetic appeal continue to make it a favorite among homeowners. Welsh slate, in particular, is renowned for its high quality and is often used in traditional and heritage buildings. However, it can be expensive, with prices ranging from £40 to £100 per square meter, depending on the quality and source.
Tiles, on the other hand, offer a more affordable option for roofing, with prices starting from £20 per square meter. They are also easier to install and maintain than slate, making them a popular choice for modern homes. However, they may not offer the same level of durability as slate, with a typical lifespan of 20-30 years compared to slate's 50-100 years.
For those looking for a more environmentally friendly option, reclaimed slate and tiles are a great choice. Not only do they reduce waste, but they also offer a unique, characterful look that can add to the charm of your brick house. However, be prepared for higher prices, as reclaimed materials can be more expensive than new ones.
When choosing slate or tiles, it's essential to consider the wastage factor. Slate, in particular, can be prone to breakage during installation, which can increase the overall cost. Sorting and selecting the right materials can help minimize wastage and ensure a smooth installation process.
