Cardinal slate re-roof

An old roof stripped off and laid again in cardinal slate to the Cotswold look, with new felt, battens, fascia and guttering.

The finished building, a cardinal slate roof laid in diminishing courses to the Cotswold look over a rubble stone wall, with new fascia and guttering along the eaves and lead run up to the gable behind it.

What we did

  • An old roof, mossed and worn, stripped off.
  • New felt laid over the rafters and new battens fixed across it.
  • The roof laid again in cardinal slate, in diminishing courses, to the Cotswold look.
  • New fascia along the eaves, and new guttering on it.
  • Lead run along the abutment where the roof meets the gable wall.
  • The same roof part way through, thick with moss, with one of the pair lifting a slate off it by hand and new felt and battens already fixed across the stripped section behind him.
  • The same roof stripped back to the rafters, with new felt laid over them and new battens fixed across it, new timber along the eaves, and the old slates stacked on the ground below.
