Why Choose Us

How Long Has It Been Since Your Roof Was Checked?

A slate roof that looks fine from the street can still have cracked tiles, loose ridge caps or decaying flashing. Often, these small problems aren’t obvious until water starts finding its way in.

We recommend a roof inspection every few years, especially in older homes. It’s a simple way to stay ahead of issues and avoid bigger repairs down the track. If it’s been a while, we can take a look and give you clear, honest feedback.

We Match the Work to Your Roof

If your roof is mostly intact, we won’t recommend replacing it.
Our goal is always to restore what’s there. That might mean cleaning off built-up moss, resealing flashing, replacing a few cracked tiles or repointing the ridge. If replacement tiles are needed, we match with reclaimed slate whenever possible to preserve the original look.

You’ll deal directly with us as we do not use sub contractors!
The team you speak with is the one doing the work, from the first inspection to the final tile.

It was a pleasure to have the Slate Roof Restorations team re-slate our federation home on Sydney's north shore. Professional, consultative, communicative and perfect clean-up after the job. The roof looks spectacular and our prior issues with water leaks and possums have completely been addressed. Cannot recommend them highly enough.

They were efficient, competitively priced, and left the site spotless. Most importantly, their communication was outstanding—a crucial factor for me and my building company. Highly recommend. Thank you!

We had a few Sydney-based slate companies to repair the slate roof after storm damage, with not a great outcome, including cracked slates remaining and several leaks through, inferior workmanship.. I then called Oliver Stearman at Slate Roof Restorations who was able to fix all problems, including the water leaks and secure the roof, without over- promising and under-delivering, which was a constant with the previous companies. I couldn't recommend Slate Roof Restorations more highly. The quality of their work is outstanding. Their professionalism and dedication to their craft is unmatched

Drummoyne Slate Roofing FAQs

Have questions about our roofing services or process? Find clear answers to some of the most common inquiries below.

Every few years is a sensible interval, particularly on older homes. A slate roof can look perfectly fine from the street while quietly developing cracked tiles, loose ridge caps, or decaying flashings underneath. Catching these issues early is far cheaper than dealing with water damage once it’s found its way inside. We offer honest, straightforward inspections with clear feedback and no pressure.

Not if the structure beneath it is still sound. Slate is one of the most durable roofing materials available and can last well over a hundred years with the right upkeep. Our goal is always to restore what’s already there rather than replace it unnecessarily. If your roof mostly needs cleaning, repointing, or a few tiles replaced, that’s what we’ll recommend.

Yes. Where replacement tiles are needed, we use reclaimed slate wherever possible to match the colour, texture, and size of what’s already on your roof. Drummoyne’s heritage streetscapes are part of what makes the suburb worth preserving, and a repair that blends in properly protects both the character and the value of your home.

The most common jobs we see are cracked or slipping tiles, deteriorating flashings, built-up moss and lichen, and ridge caps that need repointing. Sometimes it’s one of these, sometimes it’s a combination. We inspect the full roof before recommending anything and match the work to what your roof actually needs, nothing more, nothing less.

Drummoyne falls under Canada Bay Council, and some properties in the area are subject to heritage conservation guidelines. If your home is heritage-listed or within a conservation zone, roofing work may need to meet specific requirements around materials and method. We’re experienced working within these frameworks and can advise you on what applies before any work begins.

Moss and lichen hold moisture against the surface of the slate, which over time accelerates decay and can work into the tile itself. It can also hide cracked or damaged tiles that would otherwise be spotted during a routine check. We remove moss using safe, roof-friendly methods that won’t damage the slate, and we always use the opportunity to inspect for any underlying issues at the same time.
