Many historic homes in Fredericksburg, VA retain original slate, copper, or clay tile roofs installed in the early 20th century. The specialists below are experienced in heritage roofing materials that require different techniques than modern shingle work.
Tip: A legitimate slate roofer will assess whether individual slates — not just the whole roof — need replacement.
Many contractors recommend full slate roof replacement when only flashing or underlayment has failed. A legitimate slate specialist will identify whether the slate itself is failing — most are not, and can last another 50–100 years.
