Repair or replace a slate roof?
Good slate can outlast the nails and flashing that hold it. Most leaks on slate roofs come from slipped or broken slates, worn valleys and failed flashing, and all of those can be repaired.
When a large share of the slates are soft, flaking or splitting, or the nails have failed across the roof, replacement makes more sense. We show you photos and give you a written price for both options.
