Overview

Slate & Tile Roofing in northern New Jersey

Slate and tile are the longest-lasting roofing materials on the market — a properly installed slate roof can last a century. But they are unforgiving of poor workmanship, and most general roofers are not equipped to work on them.

We repair, restore and install slate and clay tile roofs across northern New Jersey, including the older homes of Montclair, Englewood and Summit. We source reclaimed and colour-matched material so repairs blend into the original roof instead of standing out.

How it works

From first call to clean-up

A straightforward process you can follow start to finish — no chasing, no guesswork.

  1. 01

    Heritage assessment

    We inspect the slate, the fasteners and the flashing to tell you what is failing and what has decades left.

  2. 02

    Material sourcing

    We locate matching new or reclaimed slate and tile before scheduling, so the repair blends in.

  3. 03

    Careful installation

    Experienced hands work the roof — slate splits, it does not bend, and it needs roofers who know that.

  4. 04

    Long-view guarantee

    Workmanship guaranteed, with flashing and underlayment chosen to match the century-long life of the slate.

FAQ

Slate & Tile Roofing — common questions

Almost always. Quality slate can last 75–150 years — far longer than the flashing and fasteners around it. Often the slate is fine and only the metalwork needs attention.
Yes. We source new colour-matched and reclaimed slate and tile so repairs blend into the original roof rather than leaving an obvious patch.
Slate and tile are premium materials and cost more than asphalt — but they last several times as long. We give a detailed fixed quote after assessing your specific roof.
Not usually. If the slate itself is sound, restoring it preserves both the value and the character of your home for far longer than an asphalt replacement would.
