There’s something satisfying about perfect alignment.

Every line you see here is intentional—measured, set, and installed with precision. Nothing rushed. Nothing left to chance.

Because when it comes to your home, the details aren’t small—they’re everything.

Clean alignment like this doesn’t just look better… it performs better, lasts longer, and holds up when it matters most.
This is the difference between getting the job done—and getting it done right.

In 2003, Slate & Copper Services, in collaboration with Newport Harbor Corporation and Kirby Perkins Construction, was entrusted with a full cedar roof restoration at Castle Hill. Our team restored the roof using coastal grade cedar, hand detailed flashing, and historically appropriate methods that preserved the inn’s architectural integrity.

But in early February of 2026… Castle Hill faced one of the greatest challenges in its 150 year history. A devastating fire swept through part of the inn, damaging sections of the roof and interior. In the days that followed, the focus turned to preservation… recovery… and rebuilding.

Slate & Copper Services was brought in to lead the roof repair and rebuild. Our goal was clear: restore what was lost… strengthen what remained… and ensure the inn’s architectural character endured.

We rebuilt the damaged roof … installed new coastal grade cedar shingles… and fabricated custom copper flashing and details — each piece hand formed to match the original profiles. Every step required precision. Every decision required respect for the building’s history. And every detail was crafted to withstand the next century of coastal weather. This was more than a construction project. It was a restoration of memory… heritage… and place.

Today, the Castle Hill Inn stands renewed — its cedar roof restored, its historic character preserved, and its future secured. Slate & Copper Services, alongside Newport Restaurant Group and Kirby Perkins Construction, is proud to have played a role in protecting this landmark for the next generation.

Wood Roofing in Coastal New England | Slate & Copper Services

From Newport to Cape Cod, wood roofing has long been part of New England’s architectural identity. Cedar shake and shingle roofs offer a natural, weather-resistant solution that complements historic homes and coastal properties alike—while standing up to the region’s demanding climate.

At Slate & Copper Services, we specialize in the craftsmanship required to install and maintain wood roofing systems designed specifically for coastal environments. Salt air, wind, moisture, and seasonal temperature swings all take a toll—but when properly installed and maintained, cedar roofing performs exceptionally well.

Slate Roofing Services in RI, CT & MA: What Homeowners Should Know

Slate roofs are a hallmark of many homes across Rhode Island, Connecticut, and Massachusetts, offering unmatched longevity and classic beauty. When properly installed and maintained, slate roofs can last 75–150 years or more—but only when cared for by experienced slate professionals.

Not all roofing contractors are trained to work with slate. Improper repairs using asphalt techniques, incorrect fasteners, or mismatched slate can cause more damage than good. New England’s coastal weather, freeze‑thaw cycles, and heavy storms make expert slate repair and copper flashing work essential.

Most slate roofs don’t need full replacement—targeted repairs and routine maintenance can extend their lifespan for decades.
