Slate replacement, ridge repointing and full slate roof restoration. Welsh and Irish slate matched.
For slate roofs in Portobello, Peak Roofing provides expert, fully insured service. Natural slate is the most durable roofing material available — properly maintained, a slate roof can last well over 100 years. Our natural slate specialists carry out selective slate replacement, full restoration projects and hip and ridge repointing on all slate roof types across Portobello. Where the slates themselves are sound but the mortar bedding, nibs or felt underlay have failed, repair is almost always the right solution — and we will always recommend it over full replacement where it makes sense. Repairs start from €350, with most completed the same day. Free survey, written quote, no call-out charge.
