4. Install the slate — the natural or the synthetic slate in the manufacturer’s pattern

Preventing Roof Problems in Bullhead City

• Check for the cracked and the slipped slate — the wind and the foot traffic cause the damage
• Check the flashings and the penetrations — the slate protects but the flashing seals
• Check the hooks and the nails — the fasteners corrode over time
• Keep the valleys clear — the debris backs the water up

Expert tip: in Bullhead City, the slate roof is only as good as the flashing. The slate sheds the water, but the copper flashing at the valleys and the penetrations does the sealing. The framing needs to handle the slate weight.
