slate roof

Our 113-year-old slate roof is finally going to pieces. We need to install new slate or TPO. Anyone have a great recommendation for a slate roof specialist?

Thanks. I’m at betsyandrews@yahoo.com. I called your guys; they’re coming by on Monday morning. They seem like the real deal.

I replaced it with real slate.  If you want to take a look, give me your contact info.  I don’t think there was a big price difference at the time and I heard some negatives about the manufactured stuff.

I have corner brownstone with a slate mansard roof.  A couple of years ago, I got several bids to replace it.  I ended up using East Coast Builders, slateroofers.com  I was very happy with their work and the price.  They did a perfect job for 1/2 the price of the next lowest bid.  They live upstate and come down and stay in a hotel.  I was dubious but it all worked out.
