Slate roofs are susceptible to impact damage, however, and if you notice broken, cracked, or missing slate tiles, you need roofing repair companies in Charleston to take a look at your roof right away to assess the necessary repairs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Repair Vs. Replacing a Slate Roof<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slate is one of the most expensive roofing materials so homeowners should get quotes from roofing repair companies Charleston that weigh repairing and replacing the roof against each other so you can make the best decision. If you only have a few slate tiles that need to be fixed, roofing repair companies in Charleston will most likely recommend replacing the few tiles. If your slate roof is historic, you might be prohibited from replacing the slate roof and only be able to complete repairs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you end up having to replace the entire roof, there are a few things you must keep in mind:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The old slate must be removed completely to avoid overloading the roof timbers (slate is very heavy!)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stripping should be done in sections and felt should be installed to avoid exposing the entire sub-roof at once to the elements.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slate is sold by the square. One square cover 100 square feet of plain roof surface.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure to order your slate long before you begin your roofing project. Slate can take anywhere from four to twelve weeks to quarry and deliver and even up to a year for special orders.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ll need metal flashings, gutters, and downspouts. Make sure to choose the same type of metal for all of these components to avoid galvanizing.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Copper or Terne flashings are the most common on historic slate roofs<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you need a quote from roofing repair companies in Charleston for replacing or repairing your slate roof, give <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bonedryroofing.net\/charleston-sc\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bonedry Roofing<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> a
