The Durable Slate Company – Precision. Craftsmanship. Integrity. The Durable Slate Company is an award-winning slate roofing contractor serving the Eastern United States, with offices throughout Ohio and Maryland. Since 1986, we’ve specialized in premium historic roofing services, restoring and protecting some of the region’s most significant homes, churches, and landmark buildings. We are known for our business integrity, roofing ingenuity, and commitment to craftsmanship — and we’re looking for a driven, detail-oriented Roofing Estimator to join our team. If you understand roofing systems, can evaluate a structure with a critical eye, and take pride in delivering accurate, profitable estimates, this is an opportunity to build a long-term career with a respected and growing company.Why This Role Matters Our projects are not “standard roof replacements.” Many involve historic slate and tile systems that require careful evaluation, thoughtful planning, and an understanding of proper repair versus replacement methods.

Identify repair vs. replacement solutions for slate and tile roofing systems
Prepare detailed, accurate, and profitable estimates
Clearly communicate scope of work and recommendations to clients
Collaborate with production teams to ensure smooth project execution

Ability to carry up to 50 lbs. regularly
Willingness to travel occasionally and work overtime when needed
Ability to pass pre-employment and random drug screens
Ability to pass a background check
Most importantly, we’re looking for someone who is honest, detail-oriented, and takes ownership of their work.What We Offer We believe strong estimators deserve strong support.
