Our Services

Slate roofing services we offer.

Natural and synthetic slate installed and repaired to match historic streets and high-end builds. A true slate roof is a generational decision, and we treat it that way.

  • Natural Slate Installation

    Quarried slate hung on the heavy-duty structure and underlayment a hundred-year roof deserves.

  • Synthetic Slate Systems

    Composite slate with the same profile at a fraction of the weight and cost, smart for re-roofs.

  • Slate Repair & Matching

    Cracked and slipped slates replaced with stock matched to your roof, not whatever is on the truck.

  • Copper Flashing & Details

    Valleys, flashings, and ridge details done in metals that last as long as the slate above them.

"After getting nowhere with six other roofing companies (no-shows, ghosting), I tried Baker. Everyone was professional and always on time with great communication. Joey and his crew did excellent work and thoroughly cleaned up."

    Baker replaced our slate roof and they were absolutely excellent. Steven Bartz was professional and a pleasure to work with the entire process. From start to finish everything was flawless, and the final result is a truly beautiful roof.

    Exceptional job on window, siding and gutter replacement. Everything was literally measured twice and arrived the proper size. No surprises once work started, and the job site was kept clean with daily end-of-day sweeps.

    We were told by someone else that we needed an entirely new roof. Will gave us the honest news that we only had a few shingles and pipe boots to replace. His honesty and quick scheduling saved us so much stress (and money).

Six steps, one named project manager on the job start to finish, and zero surprises along the way.

    You get an itemized written quote and honest news: a repair if that's all you need, a full replacement only if you do.

  3. 03

    Choose your system & financing

    Pick your shingle, color, and warranty tier. 0% for 24 months is available, no deposit required.

  4. 04

    Schedule & material delivery

    We lock a date that works for you and stage materials at your home. Your named project manager coordinates every detail.

  5. 05

    Install day

    A real Baker crew with a named PM on site, plus photo updates from the roof while we work, so you're never in the dark.

  6. 06

    Magnetic sweep & final walkthrough

    Every job ends with a magnetic nail sweep across the driveway and a walkthrough together before we call it done.

FAQ

Common slate roofing questions from Carolina homeowners

How long does a slate roof last? +

A natural slate roof commonly lasts a hundred years or more, longer than almost any other roofing material. Often the flashing and fasteners need attention before the slate itself does, which is where most slate repairs come from.

Can you repair my existing slate roof? +

Yes. Many slate roofs only need cracked or slipped tiles replaced and the flashing renewed, not a full replacement. We match the slate and make the repair blend in, and we will tell you honestly how much life is left.

Is slate worth the cost? +

For the right home, yes. Slate costs more up front than any common roof, but it can outlast several asphalt roofs and adds real character to historic and high-end homes. We lay out the numbers honestly so you can decide.

Do you install slate roofing across both Carolinas? +

Yes, across our North Carolina and South Carolina markets. Share your address and we will confirm coverage and set up a free estimate.
