This roof was ruined first by the slate "walkers" who crack and break slate, then the slate "caulkers" who seal in the moisture, forcing it to find a way into the home. Our project scope is shown below. The new slate is from our friends at North Country Slate in Canada.
- Fix leaks at roof transitions.
- Replace rear roof and hand-cut all curved slate to match original slate on the house.
- Design and build "slate" steps for rear roof access without ever walking on the slate.
- Add V-5 permanent roof anchor for fall protection.
- Design and build a fully supported "walkable" and easily "removable" sectional ridge cap.
- Remove 2 leaking plumbing stacks on the side and consolidate them into our single stainless steel vent stack on the rear.
Control your water flow, control your building's life expectancy.

This fun project (The Jewel's Journey) follows the repairs we made on the exterior of this gorgeous Diamond in the Rough! The homeowners worked with us on this project and did all the scraping, heat-gunning, priming, caulking and painting. Not only that, the husband helped us tackle the roof. First, we trained him how to safely use the Petzl gear, and then ... the fun began. We installed a roof hatch (with built-in fall protection) and (4) V-5 permanent anchors so he can safely clean his gutters from the top.
The (YouTube) slideshow below follows the order in which we did the work and repaired all the problems discovered. There's no audio, just photos. If you're a homeowner with an older home, watching the slideshow may give you ideas, or help you understand the problems you might encounter.
