Our Team

Sydney’s Trusted Slate, Lead, Copper & Shingle Experts

Heritage Slate Roofing, based in Sydney, Australia, was founded by Kyle Glasby and Luke Godden, who have over 20 years of combined experience in traditional roofing. We only use licensed tradesmen and will always have at least one director working on-site at all times. Renowned for our great attention for detail, we have worked on some of the biggest slate jobs in New South Wales, England and Wales.

Both directors of the company hold a Certificate III in traditional slate roofing and license to trade.

Natural slate harmonises perfectly with modern architecture. Its durability and beauty make this traditional building material the perfect choice for any cutting-edge design.

Historically associated with roofing, natural slate is now used for cladding façades, giving a contemporary look to any kind of architectural project. One of the main properties of natural slate is its adaptability.

Nevertheless, slate has always known how to evolve through time. It is one of the most versatile natural products used in architectural design and goes hand by hand with the architectural progress adapting itself to new trends.

Its sophistication, resistance and durability give the surface involved a certain prestige, guaranteeing a far longer service life.

The reliability and beauty of the products make it the ideal solution for architectural purposes. There is no other material that compares to natural slate!
