Kroeck and Son’s Slate Roofing

High quality, professional, definitely recommend. We have used them for a few 10,000 sqft homes and the work came out beautifully. The slate transitions were flawless. Thank you!

Ray did a beautiful job on my expansive and steep roof. It was a re-roof and he used what he could of the original slates and worked hard mixing and matching new and old. The roof is beautiful and after 5 years still in perfect condition. He worked really well with the other trades as we had to raise the roof deck on sleepers to provide passive venting from the eves to the ridge. Ray was meticulous and insisted everything be done to his specifications as far as the copper flashing, valleys and gutters. We designed a copper ridge cap that vented and placed antique red tiles on the top for a unique and beautiful look. I would highly recommend Ray for any roof projects, especially the most demanding ones with slate. He is an expert and rare in the field of roofing, as it is especially difficult to find roofers who understand slate installation. Hire Ray, you will love working with him and your roof will be spectacular!

After exhaustive research, we found this wonderful craftsman, Ray Kroeck, to install the roof of our dream house. We interviewed 5 or 6 "slaters" in northern California, and found none (except Ray) who were not only knowledgeable about the craft, but also honest enough to give us a roof that would last a lifetime. Throughout repeated problems with not only the General Contractor, but also with the importer of the Chinese slate, Ray Kroeck represented us, the homeowner, in an attempt to get us our 300 year roof. His work is old school, he represents a pride of ownership in his work, and gives this lost art a shot at the future. Not sure what will happen when artists like Ray Kroeck are no longer available. We are looking to Ray for consultation and hopefully installation at an alpine compound we are developing near Tahoe. Think freeze thaw, snow loads, ice dams, etc. We would trust no one but Ray for such a task...
