David Robinson's new book, "Buying and Maintaining a Home with a Slate Roof" is available now on Amazon.
Gutter covers or leaf guards could be harming your slate roof! In an effort to solve the problem of leaves clogging gutters, some leaf guard systems could be harming slate roofs because of faulty installations, and installers unfamiliar with slate roofs.
Among the many services we provide, repairing and replacing slate roofs is a specialty we take great pride in performing. There is something almost mystical about a roofing material formed over millions of years, quarried from the earth where only fifteen percent survive extraction, painstakingly cut by hand (craftsmanship), and installed in a manner that hasn’t changed much in hundreds of years (craftsmanship again).
