Pre-Confederation Original Slate Roof Replacement

Our 150 year old home still had original slate roof. We consulted with various experts about salvaging the roof - but it would be costly and only briefly extend its life. Faced with needing a new roof, we researched and quoted both shingle and steel options. Quickly though, we realized that metal was the better option that would emulate the slate look AND be durable for years to come. We had a few steel roof quotes, but we were unsure that local roofers would be able to handle a huge job on this old house. One roofer even claimed to be able to go on top of the slate! It would have been a cheaper quote but we knew if we are doing this one time only we have to do it right. New Steel was NOT the cheapest quote. They were on the high side for us, but we were most impressed with their assessment/estimate. They immediately recognized the needs of this older house roof and were confident that they could remove the old roof, re-plywood and install the new roof without issue. Added to that we discovered bats in our attic which meant working with a wildlife guy to secure the roof from future colonies. Again New Steel worked with our wildlife guy to make it happen to spec. When we were concerned about our timeline, Max added a 2nd crew (we had to twist his arm a bit) to speed up the roof so we wouldn't miss the bat removal deadline (it's a regulated thing due to endangered species etc.). The guys - especially Sandor and his team - did a fantastic job cleaning up after themselves, being polite and friendly and respectful at all times. I've never had a really stellar roofing job before (and we've had several roofs done in previous houses). But this experience was awesome. Highly professional, quality work, genuinely good guys who seemed to really care about our house and property. I would not hesitate to use them again. We were pretty impressed to say the least!
