If these walls could talk…✨

…they’d tell over 130 years of Toronto history. And we’re making sure they can tell 130 more ✨

If you’re in the area, you will notice that the legendary Gooderham Flatiron Building is currently undergoing renovations. We are thrilled to be supplying the natural slate shingles that will soon restore its iconic roofline to its full glory. 🤩

Why natural slate?

✅ Historical Authenticity: It honors the original craftsmanship, maintains the building’s structural integrity and heritage.

✅ A Forever Roof: While other materials need replacing every few decades, high-quality natural slate routinely lasts well over 100 years.

✅ Nature’s Strongest Defense: Fireproof, impervious to water, and stands up the the harshest of climates.

True architecture deserves true, natural materials. We can’t wait to see this beauty unveiled! 🔨
