Lincoln's Victorian terraces carry a vast amount of original slate, and much of it is now at the end of its life. The slate itself often outlasts the nails holding it. When those nails rust through, slates slide out of line, a fault roofers call nail sickness, and one slipped slate becomes a dozen after a wet winter. A few slipped slates on an otherwise sound roof are a repair: each one refixed with a clip and the job is done. When slates are slipping across the whole roof, the nails have gone everywhere, and a full re-roof is the honest answer.
On a re-roof we strip to the rafters, fit breathable membrane and treated battens, and cover the roof again in natural slate or a modern equivalent, with the cost of each set out in writing so you can choose. An independent building inspector checks and signs off the finished roof, and it carries our 20-year written guarantee.
Roof repairs and flat roofs in Lincoln
The other faults Lincoln roofs develop are the ones every city sees: chimney flashings that have lifted, ridge mortar blown out by the wind, leaking valleys, and flat-roofed garages and extensions still on their original felt. We replace felt with EPDM rubber or GRP fibreglass, both far longer lasting, and guarantee it like the rest of our roofing work. Every job, uphill or downhill, starts with a free survey with photographs and a fixed written quote within 48 hours.

Roofing in Lincoln, your questions answered
What guarantee do I get in Lincoln?
Every Arkenstone job in Lincoln carries a written workmanship guarantee: 20 years on roofing work and 5 years on driveways and patios. Full roof replacements across Lincolnshire are also signed off by an independent building inspector, so you have third-party proof of the standard, not just our word.
How quickly can you survey my roof in Lincoln?
Usually within a few days, faster for active leaks. You will get an honest assessment with photos, then a fixed written quote, no pressure and no obligation.
Do you install driveways in Lincoln as well?
Yes, resin bound, tarmac, block paving and patios, all built on properly prepared sub-bases and covered by a 5-year written workmanship guarantee.
Is it worth repairing a Victorian slate roof in Lincoln?
Yes, when the problem is local. A handful of slipped slates on a sound roof can be refixed for far less than a re-roof. When slates are slipping all over, the nails have failed across the roof and the repairs will keep coming back, so we will tell you a re-roof is better value and show you the photographs.
