How we make ridged slate:
We take tiles of cleft, natural slate with thickness variation from 10 ~15 mm and trim it down to a standardised thickness. Then, we send the tiles though a machine with a diamond helicoid shaft, that produces the ridges and ensures all the ridges are straight and perfectly parallel to the edges and a regular depth. At the same time, the tiles go through a brushing process of diamond brushing combined with a synthetic brushing pads. This helps to achieve the smooth, consistent and slight shinning product. It is then washed, dried and then ready for the sign making process.
How we make our ridged slate house signs:
The artwork is created on a computer by one of our designers and a vinyl mask is produced. The washed and dried, ridged slate is cut to the desired size. It is then covered with the vinyl mask to protect it during the process. The mask allows the sand blasting process to etch your house name or number without damaging the rest of the plate. The sign is then sandblasted, by hand, by one of our experienced craftspeople, who then proceed to hand paint the lettering / number in your chosen colour. When the plate is fully dry, the mask is removed and the sign is cleaned and made ready for dispatch. Finally the sign undergoes our rigorous quality control procedure and is signed off ready for delivery.
