Synthetic slate on a new build

The architect wanted slate. The frame was designed for shingle. Composite gave the look at a quarter of the weight and no structural work at all.

Synthetic slate on a new build

The problem

Reproducing a natural slate's random coursing with a moulded product, without it reading as a repeat.

What we did

Mixed four thicknesses and five widths across the deck, set out so no pattern repeats within a slope.

The result

Reads as quarried slate from the ground, went on a standard frame, and carries a fifty-year warranty.

Placeholder case study. This job is illustrative — Roofave is not a real company and this work did not take place.
