Lazonby Reproduction Stone Roofing Slates are hand crafted to give an authentic roofscape. Detailed moulding and a range of sizes create a coursed and diminishing stone slate roof.
The glass fibre cement construction provides a light yet durable roofing material. An easy to lay format and a range of compatible products, including ridges and in-line ventilation systems, create an extremely versatile and cost effective alternative to natural products.
Each individual slate is hand crafted using moulds taken from stone slate originals. As with natural stone, shades vary with no two slates being identical. This combined with the surface detail and hand colouring ensures a truly authentic roofscape.

Designed to Diminish

Our slates are designed to give a random diminished course roofscape. A wide range of sizes ensure the roof can be laid using a random diminishing course technique providing greater weather protection and an authentic look.
