What are the benefits of slate?
Everything

Millions of years in the making, slate’s properties are proven to withstand harsh environments and extreme weather. Its allure will never fade. Naturally strong and breathtakingly beautiful, slate adds statement to any project.

Beautiful

Why Slate?

Slate has a mood of it's own, displaying a changing beauty with the light, or deeper colours and mottling after rain.

Long-lasting

Long-lasting

Slates over 400 years old have been reused in restorations. It's an example of slate outlasting the building.

Maintenance free

Fit and forget. Slate copes well with extremes of New Zealand weather. Fitting is guaranteed for 15 years and slates up to 100 years.

Slate of the art

Whatever your project, whether for your home, your client or for your business, slate makes a statement. To guarantee the best finish, slate needs looking after at every stage from the mountain to the fitting. That's what we do and why we call ourselves the slate experts.

The story of our slate
From mountain to rooftop

Quarry

Millions of years in the making and layered perfectly, our slate comes from a single seam from quarries in Argentina, Spain or Wales.

Splitting

Splitting slate is an artform and at Enable it is done entirely by our skilled craftsmen’s hands. This means every piece of slate is totally unique.

Tracking

The devil is in the detail, we trace the passage of each tile on your roof right back to the individual vein in the quarry that produced it.

Fitting

Only our accredited fitters work with Enable Slate on your property.
