Services
Our valued customers understand the importance of owning historical properties and believe themselves to be the caretakers, not just owners, of their home. The caretakers understand that Rochester’s harsh weather can damage or deteriorate their homes exteriors; the specialists at CSTM always use quality materials and craftsmanship to protect your investment from the elements of nature.
CSTM also works closely with many area contractors and has established a network with them to do things only one way – The Right Way.
To do a job "The Right Way" it must be done thoroughly. CSTM knows that a leak occurs not just because of poor or damaged shingling, but also through worn out underlayment and/or flashings. It is necessary to replace all material on a roof to contain a leak, not just the shingles. Not all homeowners are aware of this and may have a job done with new shingles, only to have the problem occur again because the underlayment was not installed properly, were damaged during the work, or the flashings have not been replaced. Most roofs look good from the ground. We encourage our customers to come up to look and see the damage that is on their roof/gutter systems. If a homeowner is not comfortable climbing ladders, we take pictures to show the homeowner just what and where the damage is.

•SLATE & TILE
The majority of slate and tile roofs last for well over 100 years, but need to have flashings, underlayment, and the flanged gutter system replaced after 75+ years.
