Builders have been using slate for hundreds of years to protect their homes, not just because of its versatility and performance, but also because of its natural beauty. Modern concrete tiles may perform just as well physically, but they will never match the ancient aesthetic beauty of natural slate.

Slate has been mined around the world since ancient times, with some locations rising to prominence for the quality and colour of their output. At B&M Henderson roofing merchants, we scour the world to find the very best slate roof products for our customers, and we are proud to offer a huge choice of slate from around the globe. In fact, we are one of the largest importers of roofing slates in the UK, offering countless slate styles from four of the world’s best slate suppliers.

Roof Slates

Our range of Brazilian slate comes in black, green or blue grey, while our Welsh range is available in no less than eight different base colours, with countless natural variations. Choose from our high quality Spanish range and you can even pick smooth or textured slate, in a range of colours, to open up a whole new dimension in slate roofing design.

The latest addition to our range comes from the new slate mines of China, with a choice of Imperial or Majestic slate available. Our careful selection from this emerging market means that you can enjoy the low cost of Chinese imports with the highest standards, including rare NHBC approval on the Majestic range.

From consistent colouring to beautiful natural variations, from smooth to textured, from as far away as China to as close as Wales, when it comes to roofing slates, B&M Henderson have got it covered – to help you to get your home covered in style.
