Slater for 32 years, the silicone’s of yesteryear do not compare to what’s available nowadays, but like everything: they only work if they are used correctly.

Hi! Great video, what is the black sheet material you have used underneath the slate ridge? Is that roofing felt or somthing else?

Dpm by looks of it

I would respectfully suggest you review this and take it down- it really doesn't look right with the 'slipped' slates and wonky overlaps.

Well you obviously don't know how to install slate ridges. Your giving 8" exposure on a 14" slate which is wrong. If it's a 14 " slate the most you can give for exposure is 6 1/2". Then the correct sequence is right side with left side over ,then left side again with right side overlapping both and continuing with the same sequence.

This is just a made up method of slating what a strange way of capping the ridge line .Traditional ridge methods work well and have stood the test of time

Don't use a caulking gun on a slate roof.

I hate to see silicon used ‘ it will eventually break down and leaks will happen ‘ better to use a ridge the way it was always done
