Boston's slate roofing and
copper specialists, preserving roofs
built to outlive us.

“Great experience with Art Slate Roofing. They were on time, had no hidden costs and left the site clean and neat. Clear estimate and quick to start as we needed a leak fixed asap.  Arturo and his team were great to work with. Professional, hard working and good craftsmanship. They know their roofs!! The experience was terrific and we would use them again.”

“For roofing and gutter needs on our mid-1800's Italianate villa in Jamaica Plain, Arturo gets our business. His team is top notch. You may have to wait to get on his schedule, but that's the price for a reliable roofing specialist. Once you are on his radar, you are in good hands. Don't look for the cheapest option when it comes to your roofing needs. Arturo has helped us with prioritizing our needs and we are phasing the work we need completed over the course of a few years.”

“We hired Art and his crew to remove the deteriorating asphalt roof and old gutters and install slate and copper roofs and copper gutters at our historic Mansard Victorian house in Davis Sq. It was a complex and expensive project, but Art put us at ease and explained all aspects of the job thoroughly. His crew did a fantastic job and their craftmanship is excellent. Art gave us excellent advice about materials to select; at one point I wanted larger sized slate, but thankfully he installed a few samples and I realized it was not a good look and we went with the smaller size. Our roof now looks amazing (now just need the exterior siding and porch renovated to go with it). Art had a lot of experience working with the Somerville historic commission which was helpful, as I had to defend my roof proposal in front of the commission and had no prior experience. There were definitely some surprises as anyone would expect with a complicated project on an old house, but dealing with Art was always pleasant. He is very polite and treats everyone with respect (unlike some other roofers who I met who wouldn't talk to me without my husband being present as if I couldn't manage the project on my own, good grief). Art is very responsive as well. When there is an issue or new information, he calls within 24 hours. He is very available on his cell phone. Since the installation Art and his crew come every year to clean the leaves from our gutters. Art was a little strange about us wanting to save the leftover slate as there was more left than anticipated, so expectations should be worked out on that in advance. Overall it was a wonderful experience to work with him. I only hope I can have such a great contractor for our siding project.”

“Arturo and his team are cheerful, responsive and fast! I had an 1872 slate roof with a chimney cut requiring a 'cricket'; rotting facia boards; inappropriate apex, etc. Arturo consulted on the color options, with samples, and did all the slate, copper and wood carpentry in what must have been record time—about 2 weeks as I recall. I can't recommend them highly enough.”

“Art did a spectacular job on my 2+ year project. This home made the Global Mansion TV show on Fox. Arturo always showed up when he said. He stood behind his work and you could count on him being a straight shooter. Chris”
