Natural Slate Maintenance: The 10-Minute Annual Routine
One of natural slate’s biggest advantages is near-zero maintenance. Here is the complete annual routine.
Roofing
Annual inspection of flashing and fasteners. Remove moss if present. No sealing required — ever.
Flooring
Clean with pH-neutral stone cleaner. Reapply penetrating sealer every 3-5 years for indoor floors, 2-3 years for outdoor.
Wall Veneer
Z-clip installations need zero maintenance. Mortar installations benefit from annual visual inspection of joints.
