Slate roof specialists SINCE 1929
Situated in a federation street in the inner Eastern Melbourne suburbs this home is a multi-award winning architectural beauty. The covenant on the land in which the home is built demanded a stone-clad building.
The clients loved the lichen covered slate roofs on many of the old Edwardian, Federation and Victorian homes in the area and were keen to respond to and connect with this rich material history, without copying or creating a pastiche of the past.
This property features a new Del Carmen Ultra slate roof with Terracotta ornamental ridge capping, which is typical of the Federation style of this iconic Melbourne suburb.
This heritage listed building was originally a railway goods shed. Situated in the heart of Melbourne’s Docklands precinct and spanning multiple city blocks, it has been transformed into prestige office suites and restaurants.
The building features rare Penrhyn slates especially imported from Wales for the iconic project.
Typical of new builds in this prestigious Melbourne suburb, the home features mitred hips and ridge which creates clean lines to grace the building. The slate used is Spanish Del Carmen Ultra grade - a quality Spanish slate which comes with a 100 year guarantee.
A high grade Spanish slate complements this newly built home in the French Chateau style. The traditional building style demands the highest quality of building material.
Showcasing theatre since 1854, the Princess theatre is the oldest continuous theatre in Australia. A total refurbishment was undertaken in the late 1980s which took three years to complete.
Roof Service Co. was privileged to have been selected as a premier Contractor - restoring the iconic roof which included re-slating the roof in new Spanish Cupa and Canadian Vermont Green slates. It remains one of our proudest projects.
