Our team even contributed to the National Slate Association Installation Manual, and our lead slater is Master Pro Certified.

Requirements:
  • Install, repair, and restore natural slate, synthetic slate, and architectural shingle roofs
  • Match replacement slate on existing and historic roofs
  • Work with copper flashing, ridge caps, snow guards, and specialty metal details
  • Follow project specifications and historic restoration standards
  • Maintain safe, clean, OSHA-compliant job sites
  • Work on residential, commercial, institutional, and historic properties throughout PA, NJ, DE, and MD

What We're Looking For

  • 3+ years of slate roofing, synthetic slate, or steep-slope roofing experience preferred
  • Strong understanding of slate roofing practices and materials
  • Comfortable working on steep roofs with fall protection
  • Copper flashing or specialty metals experience is a plus
  • Valid driver's license
  • Ability to lift 75 lbs and work outdoors year-round
  • Ability to pass a drug test and physical

Compensation

$25-$35+/hour based on experience. Outstanding slate craftsmen with advanced restoration and slate-matching experience may qualify for higher compensation.


Build roofs that will be admired for generations.

If you're an experienced slater looking for challenging projects, steady work, and a company that values craftsmanship, apply today. GSM provides equal employment opportunities to all employees and applicants.
