What Motherwell is built of


Motherwell was steel, and the town the works built is still mostly what stands: red sandstone tenements and terraces from the Ravenscraig era's long build-up, streets of solid semis for the steelworkers, and large post-war schemes that housed the industry at its height.

Tenement roofs here are shared roofs, big slate slopes over several households with communal gutters and long lead valleys, and they reward proper maintenance far more than piecemeal patching.

Local conditions

What the weather does to Motherwell roofs


Industrial-era roofs in Motherwell are now well over a century old. The slate is often still sound Scotch slate, but fixings, flashings and mortar are at the end of their lives. On shared buildings, small faults left alone become expensive communal repairs.

Typical jobs in Motherwell

  • Shared tenement roofs needing coordinated repairs
  • Slipped slates over communal closes
  • Long gutter runs and downpipes failing
  • Chimney stacks serving flats below
  • Post-war roofs on their first covering
