Spanish & Welsh Slate
Roofing Specialists
Premium natural slate roofing for Melbourne and Victoria — supplying imported Spanish slate direct from source, plus expert installation, restoration and repair of all slate roofing.
The Finest Slate, Expertly Installed
At CladCor Building Solutions, we specialise in premium natural slate roofing — one of the world's most beautiful, durable and long-lasting roofing materials available.
Slate is a naturally occurring stone that has been used for roofing for centuries. Its exceptional density, fire resistance and low water absorption make it perfectly suited to the Australian climate — from Melbourne's summer heat to winter rain and everything in between.
We supply premium Spanish slate imported directly from quarries in Spain, and work with both Spanish and Welsh slate for new roofing, restorations and repairs across Melbourne and Victoria. Our experienced team works with homeowners, architects, heritage consultants and builders of all sizes.

Spanish & Welsh Slate
We work with two of the world's most respected natural slate origins — each with its own distinctive character, colour and heritage.
Spanish Slate
CladCor imports premium Spanish slate direct from quarries in the Galicia region of north-west Spain — home to some of the world's finest natural slate deposits. Sourcing directly means we can offer superior quality at competitive pricing, with full traceability from quarry to roof.
Spanish slate is renowned for its consistent dark grey-blue colour, tight grain and excellent durability. It is widely used across Australia for both traditional and contemporary roofing projects.
SUPPLY & INSTALL
Welsh Slate
Welsh slate is widely regarded as the finest natural roofing slate in the world. Quarried from the mountains of North Wales, it is celebrated for its distinctive blue-grey hue, fine cleavage and extraordinary longevity — many Welsh slate roofs remain in excellent condition after 200 years.
It is the material of choice for prestige new builds, period restorations and heritage projects where nothing but the best will do.

Our Slate Roofing Services
From supply through to full installation, restoration and repair — CladCor covers every aspect of natural slate roofing across Melbourne and Victoria.
New Slate Roofing
Full supply and installation of natural slate roofs for new builds and complete re-roofing projects. We handle everything from batten layout and sarking through to ridge capping and flashings, installed to Australian Standards.
Slate Roof Restoration
Breath new life into an ageing or deteriorating slate roof. Our restoration service includes a full condition assessment, replacement of broken or slipped slates, re-bedding and repointing of ridge capping, and re-flashing of vulnerable areas.
Slate Roof Repairs
From a single broken slate to widespread storm damage, our team carries out prompt, professional repairs using matching slate where possible. We also repair flashings, valleys, ridges and any associated waterproofing to restore your roof's integrity.
Heritage & Period Restorations
Specialist work on Federation, Victorian and Edwardian homes where maintaining original character is essential. We source matching slate to preserve the authentic look and work sympathetically with heritage overlays and council requirements.
Spanish Slate Supply
We supply premium Spanish slate direct from source in Galicia, Spain — available to builders, trades, owner-builders and the public. Buying direct means better quality control and more competitive pricing than through secondary distributors.
Inspections & Assessments
Not sure of the condition of your slate roof? We carry out thorough slate roof inspections and condition assessments, providing you with a clear report and honest recommendation on whether repair, restoration or replacement is the right path forward.
Built to Last a Lifetime
Natural slate is among the most durable roofing materials ever used — and its beauty only deepens with age.
Exceptional Durability
Natural slate is one of the hardest roofing materials available — resistant to cracking, frost, UV and impact. Welsh slate roofs over 200 years old remain watertight today.
Low Maintenance
Once properly installed, a natural slate roof requires very little ongoing maintenance compared to most other roofing materials — saving you money over the long term.
Timeless Aesthetic
The natural variation in tone and texture of slate gives every roof a unique, elegant appearance that complements both period and contemporary architecture.
Fire Resistant
Natural slate is non-combustible and carries the highest fire resistance ratings — an important consideration in many parts of Melbourne and regional Victoria.
Increases Property Value
A natural slate roof is a premium feature that significantly enhances kerb appeal and market value — particularly for period homes and prestige properties.
Environmentally Friendly
Natural slate is a quarried stone with minimal processing, no synthetic coatings and an extraordinarily long service life — making it one of the most sustainable roofing options available.
