Questions and Answers

What is the benefit of restoring my slate roof instead of replacing it in New Bedford?

Slate is a durable, long-lasting material. Full replacement is often unnecessary and significantly more expensive. Our restoration approach allows us to repair and preserve your existing slate, maintaining the historic character of your New Bedford home while saving you money. We replace broken tiles, repoint failing mortar, and address underlying issues, extending your roof's life for decades.

How do you handle common local issues like roof flashing rust?

Rusting flashing is a frequent problem here due to our coastal humidity and salt air. We don't just patch it; we assess the full extent of corrosion. Our process involves carefully removing the compromised flashing, preparing the surface, and installing new, high-quality metal flashing sealed to prevent future water intrusion. This precise work protects the vulnerable seams and valleys of your roof from New Bedford's weather.

Do you work on both residential and commercial slate roofs?

Yes, we specialize in both. Whether it's a historic New Bedford residence or a commercial building with a slate roof, our expertise applies. We understand the different scales and requirements of each project, but our commitment to quality restoration, honest assessment, and preserving the integrity of the slate material remains the same.
