Our Process
How Our Slate Roofing Installation Process Works
In-Home Consultation & Material Selection
Our roofing consultants visit your Denver home to assess the roof structure, slope, and existing condition. We discuss slate options — color, thickness, texture, and specialty cuts — and bring samples to your home so you can see them in natural light. We evaluate whether your roof’s load-bearing structure is suitable for slate and provide a detailed written estimate with timeline.
Structural Reinforcement (if needed)
Some homes require additional structural support to safely bear slate’s weight. If your assessment indicates reinforcement is needed, we coordinate with structural engineers and complete any upgrades before slate installation begins. This step ensures your roof is engineered for slate and protects your warranty.
Removal of Existing Roof & Deck Preparation
We safely remove your existing roof and inspect the underlying roof deck for rot, damage, or deterioration. Any compromised decking is replaced with new pressure-treated lumber. We ensure proper ventilation and underlayment layers are in place before slate installation begins.
Slate Installation with Professional Fastening
Our slate experts hand-install each slate using time-tested techniques and premium fastening materials. We use stainless steel or copper fasteners — never galvanized. Proper spacing, alignment, and overlapping ensure water-tightness and durability. Flashing at valleys, ridges, and penetrations is integrated seamlessly.
Final Inspection, Warranty Documentation & Handoff
Once installation is complete, we conduct a final walkthrough with you. We photograph key areas, provide you with warranty documentation (our 5-year workmanship warranty plus any manufacturer coverage), and explain maintenance expectations. We also provide care tips for long-term preservation of your slate roof.
