The historic Funderburg House in Belvidere is a staple of the local community, and restoring it with off-the-shelf modern materials would have felt like a slight against its legacy. We had the pleasure of working on this project and making sure that any and all updates to the roofing system evoked the same historic quality of the rest of the property while also ensuring lifetimes of future use.

Spring weather can be chaotic to say the least! And even if your roof looks like it's weathered the recent storms well, there may be signs of damage lurking in masonry and other structures. Bowed or bulging bricks, spalling, and crumbling mortar are all signs of weather damage making its way to the surface. Being vigilant of these signals can help determine when your roofing system could use repairs: https://hubs.la/Q02vw7Q40

When it comes to historic roofing, two materials clearly stand above the rest in terms of reliability and popularity: clay tile and slate. These durable and long-lasting materials are a favorite among homeowners, businesses, and higher education institutions across the country.
And while these materials can appear quite similar at first glance, there are some important differences. For example, slate is a quaried raw substance great at repelling water, and clay is a manufactured material that offers customizability. Dive into the differences described by our expert craftsmen here: https://hubs.la/Q02vwnYT0
