Natural stone, split by hand, that can protect a home for a century or more. Slate is the most premium roof you can put on a house, and the least forgiving of careless work. It demands professionals who know the material, and that's exactly what we bring.
A properly installed slate roof routinely outlives the people who installed it, often the last roof a home ever needs.
Natural stone doesn't burn, rot, or host insects. Class A fire rating comes standard from the quarry.
Natural color variation in grays, greens, purples, and blacks that manmade materials can only imitate.
A slate roof is a selling point appraisers and buyers both recognize, a premium that holds.
Slate is heavy, 800 to 1,500 pounds per square, so before anything goes up, we verify your structure can carry it. Every tile is hung on its own fasteners over a premium underlayment system, with copper or stainless flashings sized to last as long as the stone. And because walking on slate cracks it, we inspect by drone, not by boot.

We know slate costs, we document every cracked and spalled tile by drone, and we make the case for like kind replacement, matching stone, proper flashings, craftsman labor. That's the difference between a check that patches your roof and one that actually restores it.
