"It is impossible to find someone who will get near an 80-yr-old slate roof, but Jeremiah was fantastic, thoughtful and expedient, and a really mason. Great communication with the office."

"Glenn was very professional and friendly when he came to give me an estimate. When the time came for me to set the appointment, he was able to accommodate me in a timely manner. It’s been a couple of weeks and we have had some bad rainstorms and I haven’t had an issue with leaks. My roof looks amazing and would recommend this company to someone that is looking for roof repair or replacement."

"Mark is great! I needed help mounting a gate to very old woodwork. Mark arrived early with everything he needed and got the job done quickly. As it turned out, the gate was defective, but Mark still offered several solutions to repair it if I didn’t want to return it. He even offered to come back if I needed any help once I got the correct pieces. His prices are reasonable and he is friendly and trustworthy. I’ll be calling him again the next time I need help around the house!"

FAQs for natural slate roofing repair projects in Salem, VA

If more than 30% of your slate roof is damaged, it's time to consider a full replacement. This will prevent further deterioration and avoid costly recurring repairs. A professional slate inspection (costing between $130 and $360) can confirm whether repairs are sufficient or if a full roof replacement is the better option.

A slate roof can last anywhere from 60 to 150 years, depending on factors like installation quality, regular maintenance and repairs, and local weather conditions. Compared to materials like clay and concrete, which often last around 50 years, a well-maintained slate roof offers superior longevity, durability, and long-lasting aesthetic appeal.

Yes, you can use temporary patch solutions, such as roofing cement or patchwork, to provide immediate relief for minor leaks or underlayment issues observed from inside your home. However, these provisional fixes do not replace the need for a permanent, professional exterior repair, which is necessary to ensure the long-term integrity and weather resistance of your slate roof.
