Question Answers

What does 'damage restoration' involve for my older Savage home?

For historic homes in Savage, our damage restoration goes beyond basic repair. We assess water, fire, or storm damage with an eye for preserving original materials and architectural integrity. Our artisans, skilled in over twenty traditional crafts, can match original plaster, woodwork, and masonry. We follow the Secretary of the Interior's Standards to ensure repairs are appropriate for your home's era, protecting its character and value while making it sound and secure.

My historic home has a sagging porch. Can you handle structural repairs?

Absolutely. Structural repair on historic buildings is a core part of our work. We specialize in diagnosing and correcting foundational issues, timber frame repairs, and stabilizing older structures without compromising their historic fabric. Our approach prioritizes traditional joinery and reinforcement techniques that are sympathetic to the original construction, ensuring the repair is both structurally sound and historically accurate for your Savage property.

I'm seeing curled shingles and rusty flashing on my roof. Can you help?

Yes, we can. These are common issues for older roofs in the Savage area. Through our sister company, Durable Slate, we specialize in historic roofing systems. We don't just replace damaged materials; we identify the root cause, such as inadequate ventilation or failing underlayment. For flashing, we often hand-fabricate and install new copper or other period-appropriate metals to provide a durable, weather-tight seal that matches your roof's historic profile, often avoiding a costly full replacement.

Local Business Overview

My journey in historic restoration began in 1985, working on slate roofs during college summers. After graduating from UCLA, I joined The Durable Slate Company full-time, becoming a partner in 1992. This path has given me the privilege of working on landmark buildings like the Ohio Governor's Mansion and the Sarasota County Courthouse. Over the years, I've served as a national slate and tile roof consultant for major firms and earned certifications from Haag Engineering, the Copper Development Association, and the Tile Roofing Institute. I currently serve as President of the National Slate Association. Today, as part of The Durable Restoration Company, we leverage this deep expertise with a team of artisans skilled in over twenty traditional crafts to provide complete interior and exterior restoration for historic buildings across the country, adhering to the Secretary of the Interior's Standards.
