Overview
Slate is a fine-grained, foliated metamorphic rock created by the alteration of shale or mudstone. It is highly impervious to water and splits naturally into thin, textured sheets, making it ideal for rustic roofing tiles, wall cladding, and textured flooring.
Key Benefits
- Low Water Absorption: Highly resistant to frost, dampness, and moisture damage.
- Natural Cleft Surface: Provides excellent traction and a highly organic look.
- Split-resistant: Very stable and split-resistant when loaded vertically.
Buying Guide
Check that cleft slabs do not have excessive flaking. Ensure thin-set mortar is selected for installation to support the textured natural backing of slate tiles.
