Kevin and his team at Castle Slate Roofing took over management of the slate roof on our converted church condo association building in Cambridge in 2021. He took over after our previous company said we were too small of a job for them and dropped us. Our roof is from 1938 and requires yearly maintenance to replace and repair missing and broken slates. They have identified and repaired flashing issues both on the edge of the roof and around the many skylights put in during the building’s conversion. It’s nice to work with a local small business that is responsive and dependable and willing to work with the quirks of a Cambridge neighborhood. I highly recommend them for your slate roof needs!
Castle replaced the slate roof and installed new copper gutters on our Tudor-style home more than 20 years ago and has maintained it ever since. The did a great job with the roof and gutters and have reliably cleaned our gutters, inspected the roof and performed repairs as needed twice a year. I recommend them highly.
We've been working with Kevin and his team for the past 20 years. What started as a great experience replacing a few broken slates soon after we bought our Lincoln home led us to hire Castle Slate during a major home renovation and two story addition several years later: extensive roofing slate and copper work, chimney repointing, new copper gutters and drain pipes, and integrated ice belt along the entire north-facing roof. His work is flawless. We now have Kevin come by to keep up with periodic roof inspection and maintenance and annual gutter cleaning. We are always happy with his skilled work and attention to detail. He is a tremendous resource and we're very fortunate to work with him.
Spoke to Kevin Williams as our roof was leaking. We got an estimate also from another slate roofing company that quoted 3 times the quote we received from Kevin. The other roof said there were all the issues with the roof and never mentioned it was just the chimney that was leaking. Kevin had repointed the chimney and replaced several slates. There has been "no" leaks. He is an honest businessman and I would recommend him to everyone.Thank you Kevin and team!
Kevin and his team did major work on my slate roof, replaced copper and gutters when I bought the house three years ago. He just came back and replaced another 24 slates after a simple email. Always reliable and there to be of help. Fair prices and a super person. I can not say how much we just trust and appreciate him.
