The neighborhood was platted as a private place in 1905 and the homes were built to match: steep pitches, copper valleys, and natural slate or designer-slate-grade roofing on most of the original housing stock. Many of these roofs are at the hundred-year mark and showing failures at the south slope or at specific flashing details. We do full re-slates, partial restorations, and copper-detail work in-house. Both Parkview and the broader Skinker-DeBaliviere district are under local historic review, which constrains what you can put back up. We know which designer-slate profiles (DaVinci Slate, Brava Old World Slate) typically pass as a natural-slate alternative here and which do not, so the proposal you get is one that will actually clear the board. The project consultant will tell you on site whether the route is matched natural slate, designer slate, or a premium asphalt that holds the look.
