Why slate roofing in FY4 is different
Dense mix of guesthouse terraces along the seafront, 1930s semis around Stanley Park and Marton, and modern estates inland. Many roofs use concrete interlocking tiles that suffer in coastal weather.
Exposed Atlantic-facing coastline — salt-laden winds, frequent gusts above 60mph in winter storms, and persistent gull damage on flatter roofs.
What shapes the FY4 price
- Roof complexity (valleys, dormers)
- Reclaimed vs new
- Scaffold and access
- Conservation requirements
No phone-quote nonsense — every FY4 price is itemised in writing after a free survey.
