There are many reasons to opt for a slate or tiled roof, and to help you decide we have compiled a handy guide.
Slate vs tile
The basic difference between slates and tiles is that one is a natural product and one is manufactured.
Used across Kent for centuries, slates are quarried, conveying a very traditional feel, and while clay or concrete tiles are constructed in a factory, they nevertheless offer an authentic finish thanks to their rich rust colour which often blends in with local brickwork.

Slate is an ideal roofing material for a number of reasons:
- It can be cut into fine layers that can be overlaid to form a weatherproof structure.
- It is naturally water and fire resistant.
- It performs well against extremes of sun and ice.
It also has a very long lifespan – which, depending on the slates used, can last between 50 and 150 years. You can also spruce up your slate roof should it become tired or lacklustre as tiles can be individually cleaned, repaired or replaced – saving you the cost of a whole new roof.

For customers across Orpington and the wider Kent county, tiled roofs have long proved popular. Available in a range of shades, clay and concrete tiles are very adaptable and can easily be matched to new and existing brick or stone work.
Like its slate counterparts, tiled roofs are relatively easy to maintain. They offer a bright, appealing finish and should have a lifespan of between 30 and 100 years, depending on conditions and upkeep.
Made from clay or concrete, the tiles are incredibly durable, breathable and fire resistant. They can also be recycled and add to the energy efficiency of your home, saving you money in the long term.
