How this job usually looks for holiday let owners

On slate roofing jobs for holiday let owners, the priorities are usually predictable — and different from a walk-in domestic call. Here's what we plan around on a Clitheroe cottages job.

  • Work booked around confirmed changeover dates
  • Absolute cleanliness — no debris in gardens or outdoor spaces
  • One-visit fixes so the calendar doesn't get blocked twice
  • Photographic evidence to share with the booking platform if needed
  • Insurance-friendly documentation for storm-related claims

The slate roofing work itself

Slate is the right answer for almost every period property in Lancashire — and most failures are nail failures, not slate failures. We strip carefully, salvage every reusable slate, fit new copper or stainless nails to a counter-batten and breathable underlay, and re-cover with matched natural slate. Where conservation requires it, we source reclaimed slate to match.

Strip with care to salvage usable slates
Breathable underlay and treated batten
Welsh, Spanish or reclaimed natural slate
Copper or stainless steel nail fixings
Lead valleys and step flashings
