I take care of roofing leaks and roof repairs. Small jobs are Albert's Roofing Specialty, but I will do larger ones sometimes. I specialize in "Ole Style" Tin, Slate, Copper, and Steel roofing throughout Va. and parts of N.C. Now, also working in Amelia- Farmville area. A Slate Roofing Repair Specialist, I specialize in finding leaks on roofs, new or old. Copper roofs and Slate roofs are sure to last hundreds of years and increase of value of your home. These 'green' roofs have been in Europe for hundreds of years and the homes are often passed down for generation after generation.
Occasionally, I'll do a shingle roof with GAF/Elk Dimensional shingles. My own house has Elk shingles and fully weaved valleys. The roof was also fully weaved for a distinct look.
I also repair Vinyl siding problems around windows. There is a link below for Window Flashing. I hope to add more pictures of my work and other info later. I can be reached at 804-232-1875 or 804-833-6418 for estimates in central Va. I post on numerous Roofing and Construction forums and my online 'handle' is tinner666.
Want a 'free' estimate? No such thing. Most often, it's added into the estimate as overhead. We all do/did it. Albert's Roofing decided to do it up front and openly. See Below for details. It has improved my business relationship with all my clients. The cost is applied to any billable work. Advice is free when we communicate through E-mail.
Albert's Specialty Roofing offers Roof Inspections for realtors also. Details are in the link below.

Feel free to browse the site's pictures to better understand what goes into a quality roof.
I have been roofing since 1967 (with time out for Military service '69-'72). Albert's Specialty Roofing has been in business since Jan.1988.
I have Class B (# 2705-084608) and Class C (#2705-037303) contractors licenses for roof projects in Virginia. I primarily work alone, though I occasionally team up with other professionals for larger projects. My preference is the difficult small job deemed too small for most contractors.
Shoddy workmanship has created a market of repairs on roofs as young as 2 years old. Most of the roofs that Albert's Roofing performs repair work on are less than 12 years old.
Roof leaks have serious consequences. They damage the dwelling directly. Indirectly, they create a natural habitat for mold, mildew, fungus, and other health damaging spores. Leaks should be corrected as soon as possible. The monetary damage can escalate exponentially in record time.
A $25.00 trip fee, deductible from the cost of any work done, is charged for looking at any project for estimating purposes. This helps offset my increased gas and insurance costs.
The Albert's Specialty Roofing minimum Charge is $250.00 for any work, though I may make exceptions at my discretion.
The
$250. is the base and $65.00 per man-hour afterwards. This includes any travel
time and time for picking up any materials. For slate, It's $250.00
for the 1st. slate, $30.00 for each slate thereafter, that can, or is suspected
to cause a leak. :)
Why be secretive?
And $250.00 isn't much when you consider I often have to look at the job to see
what slate are needed, what hooks are needed, etc. That's 2 trips before the
work starts. And each slate roof uses different size slate. It's almost
impossible to show up on the job with the right slate without going somewhere
and buying a selection. Albert's Specialty Roofing carries many sizes of
Buckingham Slate. We also have access to many other types also.
Your plumber that can charge a flat $65.00 per hour has got his truck loaded
with most everything he needs and 99% of his work is identical in nature. A
simple question or two from him can narrow his scope of work on the phone to
only a few possibilities. Not so with a roof leak.
Saving money with a lower price is very often more expensive than any other option.
Feel free to browse the Albert's Roofing pictures and other pictures I've added to the site. They are in the descriptive links I've inserted below. Feel free to ask for more roofing or other pictures by e-mail if necessary. Albert's Specialty Roofing pictures are more detail oriented than finished 'showcase' ones that show how the whole house looked when I left. This is because I feel it necessary to show you how the details need to be done. A pretty roof, or siding job with sub-par details may be worse than not having any work done. YOU deserve to KNOW what to look for when investing money in your house.
