This Roofer Apprenticeship is available to anyone aged over 16.
Roof Slaters & Tilers work on new roofs and repair and refurbish old roofs. This can be done using a variety of methods, from large format concrete tiles with a covering of 10 tiles per m2; to small formats with a covering of 60 tiles per m2;.
Roofing work can involve anything from repairing a single tile or slate on a domestic property, to re-roofing public buildings such as schools, working on new build housing projects, or installing the roof on large commercial buildings. Roofers can be on site from a few hours to a few weeks so this occupation should suit those who like to move workplaces on a regular basis.
Our Roofing apprenticeship is available on block release.
A careful, methodical and accurate approach to your work, the ability to work well in a team, a head for heights.
You should be aged 16 or over and ideally already be employed or have secured a work placement, however we may be able to help you with this. Good GCSEs are recommended and you will be required to sit a skills assessment.
