"Gentry Family was amazing to work with. As a Realtor I work with a lot of contractors and Gentry Family is at the top of my list for any roofing or general construction needs in the greater Salem area. We needed a roof replacement in Silverton as part of a real estate transaction and we were working with a pretty strict timeline. We had several bids for the project and not only was Gentry competitive in price they were able to shift their schedule (even added an unplanned weekend day) to get our job completed on time. We worked with Tim who was a great communicator throughout the entire process. He kept us updated at every step, was clear about the status and condition of the roof, and gave us all of the information we needed to feel confident in the project. I highly recommend their services."

"Jason was responsive, punctual, and honest. When his crews arrived, they got right to work and worked hard until the job was done. The roof looks great and I am confident that my leaks are gone. The guys made sure to close the gates as they worked so my dogs would not escape and they thoroughly cleaned up when they were done. Great experience--- I believe that Jason and his crew recognize that customers pay their bills and that personal referrals are like gold. I feel like they went out of their way to make sure that I had a great experience; however I suspect that my experience is the Orezona standard. Give Jason a call, you won't regret it."

"The crew that came to my house were professional and courteous. The job was completed ahead of schedule. A tree had fallen on my house. There was damage inside and outside. I am very happy with the work that was done!! They did a great job of matching existing shingles, also did a great job of blending paint to match the existing paint. I am very pleased with all of the work that was done!! I will be sharing my experience with all of my friends and family with high recommendation to use Valley Brothers Construction."

"They were fast to engage. Found the problem, looked for other similar, fixed. They had to remove some of the metal roof and replace a sheet of plywood. I was worried about the metal going back together right, but no problem. Perfect. Good job."

"The cost for roof cleaning was higher than other estimates I got, however I chose Bonn because I preferred their approach to fixing the deteriorating pipe jacks, which was also more expensive but was a more thorough solution to fixing the problem.  I think this was because Bonn does complete roofing work and not just cleaning so they were able to offer complete replacement of the pipe flashings instead of a quick fix. Bonn was prompt at providing an estimate for the job and a scheduling the work. The crew showed up on time, worked hard, was courteous and did a good job cleaning up.  Hand removal of the moss was slower than other methods but the crew did a good job. There was a problem starting the pump used to apply the moss barrier and the crew thought they'd have to come back and complete that part of the job another day. To my surprise they were back in about 1 hour and were able to complete all the work in the same day. I appreciated that the crew came back to finish because it was late in the day when they left so I hadn't expected they to return. I'm completely satisfied with all the work that was done.

"I arrived home after being away (since before the recent deluge started) to a wet interior wall. I knew I needed to get someone to come out immediately to find the leak and repair the roof. I called King & King's 24-hour number late at night (I apologize for that, as I got him out of bed) and Dennis of King & King assured me he would get a roofer  out as soon as it was light, even though it was Sunday. He did.
The work  went quickly. Jerry  located the problems (see below), and was done in an hour. Since this was the second repair for the same problem (first repairs by another company), I am thrilled.
The interior wall is already starting to dry off (confirmed Monday morning) and I may have caught it before the dry wall was damaged. I hope so.
The roof was originally put on by Mid-Valley Building in September 2012 and still under warranty when it developed a leak in March 2014. The company has closed, but the bonded owner remained responsible. It took several days for him to get a crew to us and I now realize they did not fix the problem, they just benefited from the fact that it stopped raining. New drywall was finally done in August. This was very well done, but by a different company than the roof repair.
On our own (with my brother, the Industrial Arts [shop] Teacher helping) we replaced the sill board under the wall where the leak had been and replaced damaged shingles. We thought we were done with the water problems on that roof. We weren't.
King & King's roofer found the problems easily. Jerry found several serious errors in the installation of the original roof. The Mid-Valley crew had installed 4 shingles tiles with the nails below the nail line (I have retained these shingles). Mid-valley failed to remove all staples, and at least one had worked through shingles leaving places for water to seep in. They also had failed to trim the starter shingle row down to just above the nail line, which led to cupping on the roof right where there were some of the incorrectly positioned nails. These errors created pathways through the shingles and into the interior. One other issue with the installation did not seem to be contributing to the leak. King & King pointed out that Mid-Valley had used 1&1/2 inch by 1&1/2 inch flashing on the gutter edge, rather than the standard of 1&1/2 inch by 3 inch above gutters. This did not seem to be part of the leak problem to Jerry.
King & King correctly identified the issues and rapidly fixed the problems. Sunday morning's light drizzle did not slow them down. Jerry pulled out the rusty nails and staples on the 4 shingles where the nails were below the nail line. He trimmed the starter shingles where they were now open before recovering the roof. He replaced the 4 damaged shingles and 2 others that had to be remove. And he caulked nail heads under shingles that were not replaced but under which nails had been removed to install the new shingle tiles. He was fast and efficient.
Having competent work done is very important to us. King & King provided the competent work I expect. I plan to put them first on my list to call for any other building jobs in the future. I especially have no problem recommending King & King to others who need emergency roof aid.

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Albany, OR

A slate roof features thin tiles of natural stone installed over a solid deck and underlayment. Formed under intense heat and pressure, slate is exceptionally durable and delivers a distinctive, high-end look. Because the material weighs far more than asphalt, most homes need added structural support before installation. 

While upfront costs are higher and routine inspections are a must, many homeowners choose slate for its unmatched longevity and curb appeal.

Slate stands out for its 50- to 200-year life span, low maintenance, and classic aesthetic. It’s fire-resistant, energy-efficient, and often boosts resale value. 

On the flip side, slate runs far more per square foot than asphalt, weighs up to four times as much, and demands a contractor who specializes in the material. Tiles can crack on impact, and repairs cost more because the work is slow and precise. If your budget and structure can handle it, slate delivers top-tier performance for generations.

Natural and synthetic slate aim for a premium, stone-like appearance, whereas asphalt focuses on affordability. Real slate runs $10 to $30 per square foot installed and lasts up to 200 years; synthetic slate costs $10 to $15 and tops out at 50 to 100 years. 

Standard asphalt averages $3 to $8 per square foot and needs replacement every 20 to 30 years. If you want the slate look without the full price tag—or extra roof weight—synthetic is a solid middle ground.

With routine inspections and prompt repairs, a natural slate roof can last well beyond 100 years; some hard-slate installations reach the 200-year mark. Soft slate falls in the 50- to 125-year range, and synthetic products last 50 to 100 years. 

Remember, flashing, fasteners, and the underlying structure may need attention sooner than the stone itself. Severe hail or fallen limbs can also shorten life span, so schedule periodic checkups with a slate-qualified roofer.

If you plan to stay in your home long term—or want a standout selling point—slate delivers strong value. Although installation costs are high, owners often recoup 60% to 70% at resale and enjoy lower replacement cycles than asphalt. The stone’s durability, energy efficiency, and timeless curb appeal also appeal to eco-conscious buyers because fewer roofs end up in landfills. Just be sure your framing can handle the weight and that you budget for occasional specialty repairs.

Skip the DIY climb if you have a slate roof. Slate may be tough against the weather, but a single misplaced step can crack a tile and create a leak path. The surface also turns slick when wet, upping the risk of injury. Professional crews use staging and hook ladders that spread weight across multiple slates, protecting both the roof and the worker. To inspect or repair slate, call a roofer who specializes in the material.
