Is this the right roof for your home?
A slate roof should respect your home's character while keeping Irish rain and wind outside. We assess the existing slates, structure and adjoining roof details before recommending a repair or replacement.
Why choose it
- Long service life with suitable installation and maintenance
- Suited to the character of traditional Irish homes
- Individual damaged slates can often be replaced
- Durable weather protection with sound flashing and fixings
What to weigh up
- Natural slate usually costs more than concrete tiles
- The existing structure needs to suit the chosen material
- Matching older slates may require careful sourcing

Our standard on your property
What to expect from us
How a crew behaves on your home tells you more than any photograph. This is what you can count on, on every job.
Plain, respectful language
No swearing on your property, in your garden or on the street. The crew keeps it the way you would want it if family were home.
We stick to the job we quoted
If we find something else that needs attention, we stop, show you and ask before touching it. Nothing extra happens without your say-so.
Left as it looks, only better
Dust sheets down, paths swept, gutters cleared and old materials taken away. You should not have to tidy up after us.
You always know what is happening
We explain what we found before we start, tell you if conditions change, and walk you through the finished roof at the end.
Treated like our own home
Boots wiped, borders and sky lights protected, neighbours kept informed, and access agreed before the first delivery.
No pressure and no surprises
The written price comes first. If a repair is enough, we will say so rather than sell you a new roof.
Before you decide
Natural slate roofing questions
Clear answers about costs, materials, protection and our standards.
Can you repair a slate roof instead of replacing it?
Often, yes. A few broken or slipped slates may only need a local repair. Recurring leaks, widespread deterioration or problems underneath the slates may need a bigger solution. Our free inspection helps identify what is appropriate before you commit.
How much does natural slate roofing cost in Leinster?
The price depends on roof area, access, slate choice and the condition of the structure and flashing. We provide a free, no-obligation inspection and written quote so you can compare the proposed work and price before agreeing to it.
Will new slates match my terraced home?
We discuss the appearance and availability of suitable slate, including matching existing material where practical. Shared roof lines and adjoining properties need careful detailing. If your home is protected or in a conservation area, check any applicable requirements before agreeing to a material change.
How do you protect my home and neighbours during the work?
We plan safe access, protect adjoining properties and remove old materials carefully. Weatherproofing, waste removal and a final walkthrough are part of the agreed work. We explain the plan before work begins.
Does the work include a warranty?
Vantage Roof Repairs provides a workmanship warranty on every job, alongside applicable manufacturer cover for the materials fitted. Ask for the terms for your proposed slate system when reviewing the written quote.
Can I contact you about an urgent slate-roof leak?
Yes. We answer emergency roofing enquiries 24 hours a day, seven days a week across Leinster. Call 087 466 6010 for an active leak or immediate concern. Attendance depends on the location, conditions and safe access; the team will advise you when you contact us.
