Overview

A complete tear-off and replacement of a century-old slate roof on a landmark-eligible Victorian estate in Oak Park. The project required meticulous attention to historic character while bringing the structure fully up to modern waterproofing standards.

Challenge

The original slate was hand-cut and sourced from a quarry no longer operating. We sourced matching reclaimed slate from three suppliers across the midwest to maintain visual authenticity.
