Why local specialists
Older Columbus homes need slate know-how
Columbus has a lot of slate
German Village, Victorian Village, Olde Towne East, Clintonville and Bexley are full of older homes still under their original slate.
Repair first, not tear-off
Good slate can outlast its nails and flashing many times over. Fixing what has failed usually costs far less than a new roof.
Built for Ohio weather
Freeze-thaw winters, ice and summer storms are hard on older roofs. Proper slate hooks and copper flashing hold up to them.
Written estimates, no pressure
Describe your roof once. You get a free written estimate and decide whether to go ahead. No obligation.

Frequently asked questions
Can my slate roof be repaired instead of replaced?
Usually, yes. Most slate roofs with leaks or a few broken slates need repair, not a new roof. Replacement only makes sense when much of the slate itself is soft or flaking. See repair or replace a slate roof.
What areas do you serve?
Homes across the City of Columbus, from German Village and Victorian Village to Olde Towne East, Clintonville and the University District. Requests from nearby Bexley, Upper Arlington, Grandview Heights, Worthington, Dublin, Westerville and the rest of Franklin County are welcome too. See areas served.
How much does slate roof repair cost in Columbus?
It depends on how many slates need replacing, the roof height and pitch, and whether flashing is involved, so we don’t publish a price list. Read what drives the price, and every request gets a free written estimate.
Can you match my old slate?
In most cases. Roofers use new slate from quarries or salvaged slate to match color, size and thickness. Unusual slate may take longer to find.
Do you work on homes in historic districts?
Yes. In districts like German Village and Victorian Village, repairing slate with matching slate usually keeps things simple. Changing roof materials may need approval first.
Is there a phone number?
Requests are taken through the online form so the roofer has the details they need. Choose phone call or text as your preferred contact method and they will reach out that way.
