I have a slate roof and rubber roof and had difficulty in finding someone who could do a proper inspection with repairs. I stumbled upon Doherty Slate Roofing in Swampscott, MA. Several houses have slate roof in our town. I have to say, he did an excellent job in repairing my rubber roof as well as the slate roof which had missing slates and broken slates.
He also repaired the boston Saddle hips and the flat copper roof. I am excited to write this review as we need people like Doherty who can give us an honest advice as well as understanding this unique roof for repairs. I ready for the winter and not worry about leaks and ice damage for mthe missing slates.

Jason came out to access the job the same week I contacted Doherty Slate. He reviewed and explained the issues he felt were of concern and others that I should consider. All great and NOT pushy overselling. I needed some time before committing but when when i was ready they got me on their list immediately. Liz was great about reaching out to keep me updates as my job got closer.
They arrived as expected and completed the job quickly. They kept teh job site clean and safe and kept me updated as they progressed. After the job they checked back to ensure there were no questions or issues ( which is great because sometimes thing look fine of day 1 but are seen further down the line). Not the case with me, all was grand and we were very happy with the work performed. Reasonable rates as well.

Jason and his crew sre very good and clearly dedicated to the craft. let me tell you, it isn't easy finding a really good slate roofer, but these guys are so dedicated to their craft. Jason was very forth coming with the project before we started and during the project. He would always fill me in and show me pictures of the problem areas and explained how he did things. Hands down going to give them all my slate work moving forward.

Jason from Doherty Roofing was very responsive and professional. He knows his business well. They moved their schedule around to accommodate the work I needed. Jason was concerned with heavy rain being forecasted for that week and they did the work in one day. I was very happy with the work they did and was happy to pay for the work.

Jason set an appointment a few days after my initial phone call, and arrived on time. He identified the causes of water damage to paint and to wood in several areas, and provided a reasonable estimate for correcting these.
