The best natural slate roofers on the planet competing for the title of Master of the Year

Best of the Best competition

Do you want to be the best roofer of the year?

Every day, more than 250 roofs are installed around the world with our natural slate. And every year, we organise a video contest to find the best. The best roofers of the best slate. The Best of the Best.

In 2024, we are celebrating the fourth edition of our contest. As in previous years, in the first round, we will group your videos by country, and the readers of our blog will decide the national winners with their votes.

This year, we have two major new features. The first is that a jury will choose the final winner. And the second is that the winners, in addition to visiting our quarries, will travel to Madrid to watch a football match at the Santiago Bernabéu.

How can I participate?

Contest rules

Taking part in the Best of the Best is very simple: you  need to send us a video in which our natural slate is the star. From there, imagination and craftsmanship are key.

The video can be recorded horizontally or vertically, showing a project in progress or a completed one, from the top of the roof or from the ground. Anything you can think of as long as it is related to our natural slate.

Just for participation and to thank you, we will send a small gift pack to each participant. A small goodie bag with professional tools that will make your life easier when installing natural slate roofs.

Prize
  • Visit to our HQ and quarries in A Medua
  • Winner’s trophy
  • Invitation to Santiago Bernabéu to watch a Real Madrid football match

Frequently Asked Questions

Send us a video that somehow features our natural slate: during installation, a finished project… whatever you can think of!

Let your imagination run wild. The only recommendation is that it should be between one and two minutes long.

November 15th. However, to avoid last-minute issues, it’s better if you send us your video as soon as it is ready.
