Slate Roofing for Contemporary Buildings from Bellstone, Sydney.
Property values in Australia have gone through the roof – literally! A slate roof increases the appearance and value of a property and its initial cost in relation to the value of property is historically at an all time low.
Independently conducted studies in the UK have shown that when the cost of a slate roof when amortorised against its life span, slate is the cheapest roofing material. This study was based on an assumed life span for Welsh slate of only 100 years – well below what we know they are capable of.
Bellstone carries a range of beautiful slates in different colours – they are enormously popular on contemporary buildings. The effect is striking – a far more attractive option than the suburban tile or imitation slates – many of which lose colour!
This section has photographs of a selection of buildings with Welsh and Spanish slate roofs – we hope you enjoy it.
