How We Install Slate Roofs in Colton
- Inspect the structure — the slate is heavy, the roof needs the support
- Install the underlayment — the high-temp membrane under the slate
- Lay the slate — the stone with the copper nails and the hooks
- Flash the details — the ridges, the valleys, and the penetrations
- Finish the hips and ridges — the caps and the closures
