Slate And Tile Roofing in Truro Operating Across Cornwall
Keeping Your Truro Home Dry with Local Slate and Tile Experts
Have you ever sat in your living room in Truro, listening to the rain lash against the windows, and wondered if your roof is actually holding up? Living in Cornwall, we're all too familiar with those Atlantic gales that seem to find every tiny gap in a building. At Cornwall & Plymouth Roofing, trading as Elite Construction, we've spent over 30 years making sure local homes stay bone-dry and warm. Whether you're living in a heritage terrace near the Cathedral or a modern house out towards Threemilestone, your roof is your first line of defence against the coastal elements. We aren't a big, faceless corporation; we're a family-run team of Truro roofers who take real pride in traditional craftsmanship and honest advice.
Why Choose Us?
Spotting the Signs Your Roof Needs a Bit of Love
It usually starts with something small—maybe a single slipped slate after a particularly nasty storm or a mysterious damp patch appearing on the spare room ceiling. Most homeowners we chat with tell us they noticed a bit of grit in the gutters or saw a tile sitting at a funny angle but hoped it would just hold on for another winter. Unfortunately, Cornish weather isn't that forgiving. A small leak in a valley or a bit of perished lead flashing can quickly turn into a much bigger, more expensive structural headache. We specialise in identifying these niggles early through a thorough, no-obligation survey, pinpointing exactly where the water is getting in before it ruins your insulation or timber.

Who We Are
Timeless Appeal of Traditional Cornish Slate
There's something about the look of natural slate that just fits the Cornish landscape perfectly. If you're lucky enough to own a heritage property in Truro, you'll know that nothing beats the riven finish and character of a slate roof. It isn't just about the aesthetics, though; slate is incredibly durable and can easily last a century if it's installed correctly. When we take on a slate roofing project, we pay close attention to the details that matter, like using high-quality nails and ensuring the coursing is spot on. It's a bit of an art form, really, and it's one of the best ways to boost your home's kerb appeal while knowing you've invested in a material that's built to last for generations.

01752 741428Doing the Job Right from the Membrane Up
What goes on under your slates or tiles is just as important as the bits you can see. Have you ever wondered why some roofs seem to suffer from condensation or rot? It's often down to poor ventilation or outdated underlays. When we carry out a roof restoration or a new installation, we always use a high-performance breathable membrane. This allows moisture to escape from your loft space while acting as a secondary waterproof barrier. We fix your slates or tiles to treated wooden battens and counter-battens, ensuring everything is level and secure. It's this hidden 'sandwich' of materials that keeps your home weather-tight even when the wind is howling across the Carrick Roads.
