Project Spotlight: Full Slate Re-Roof in Ulverston, Cumbria
At Cumbria Roofing, we’re committed to delivering high-quality roofing solutions that stand the test of time—and our latest project in Ulverston, Cumbria is a great example of that craftsmanship in action.
✅ Project Overview
Our team recently completed a full slate re-roof on a beautiful detached home in the historic market town of Ulverston. The existing roof had deteriorated significantly after years of harsh Cumbrian weather, showing signs of leaks and structural fatigue. After a detailed inspection, we recommended a full re-roof using natural slate—an ideal choice for both durability and aesthetic appeal.
🧰 Scope of Work
- Safe removal and disposal of the existing tile roof
- Installation of new breathable felt and treated battens
- Full re-roof using high-quality natural slate tiles
- Repair and replacement of leadwork around chimneys and valleys
- Installation of new ridge tiles and dry verge systems
- Final weatherproofing and safety inspection
📸 Before & After
The result was a striking transformation. The aged and worn roof was replaced with expertly laid natural slate, restoring the home’s traditional charm while ensuring decades of weather protection. The uniform finish and precise detailing are a testament to the skills of our dedicated roofing team.
