Where could I source roof tile to match existing, in Park Slope, on landmark block?

http://cdn.brownstoner.com/4df40c5403df5-

We need to repair our tile roof, on 3rd Street in Park Slope. Need to find tile that will match our existing, which apparently is no longer made. Need to find a vintage tile dealer, who hopefully will be able to source for us. Ideas welcome. Also any recommendations for roofer with experience in tile roofs? Thanks!

You can try these vendors: Ludowici: http://bit.ly/bux4KS Boston Valley: http://bit.ly/adQdc9 As far as roofers and sources, also talk to the owner of the first house next door to the apartment building on the northwest corner of 4th St. betw. 7th and 8th Aves. at the 8th Ave. end). You’ll recognize the building by its tiled mansard roof and turret. He did his roofwork within the last 2-3 years. I am almost certain that he used Brian Goe @ Commercial Construction Svcs: http://bit.ly/9AiABa
