Types of Slate Roofs We Install

Natural

Natural slate roofing is a popular choice due to its durability and long-lasting life. However, because it is a natural rock, the weight of a slate roof can be extremely heavy. Before installing a natural slate roof, ensure your home is structurally sound enough to handle the added weight. If not, retrofitting your home with additional support may be necessary.

Synthetic

If you’re looking for a more affordable option that still offers many of the same advantages as natural slate roofs, synthetic slate tiles may be an ideal solution. Synthetic slate tiles are made from asphalt and rubber polymers that mimic the look and texture of real slate tiles. They’re also lightweight, so they don’t require additional structural support when installed on your home.

The Pros and Cons of Slate Roofing

When making your decision about the type of roofing you prefer, there will be pros and cons. It’s best to know what to expect.

Pros of Slate Roofing

  • Beautiful: Nothing says class and style like a slate roof. Whether you opt for synthetic slate or natural stone, both will turn your home into the best-looking one on the block.
  • Long-lasting: With proper installation from knowledgeable professionals and regular maintenance, a natural slate roof can provide beauty and protection for many years to come.
  • Low maintenance: Routine inspections will help you stay on top of needed repairs. Otherwise, there is little maintenance to worry about.

Cons of Slate Roofing

  • Expensive: Quality comes at a price, and slate is not an exception! At five times the cost of asphalt shingles, it’s a serious investment for many homeowners.
  • Heavyweight: Traditional stone slate is tough to install because of its weight, meaning it’s not feasible for just any home.

Slate Roof FAQs

Traditional slate is made out of natural rock, whereas synthetic slate is made out of recycled plastics.
Slate roofs can last 50 to 100 years, depending on whether it’s natural or synthetic.
Slate roofs are very easy to maintain–just keep it clear of debris and stay on top of your inspections! Because slate roofs can easily crack when improperly stepped on, it’s always recommended to call a professional for repair and maintenance.

Dustin and his staff worked with my insurance company for covering roof … More replacement cost. The crew did an excellent job and sure everything was cleaned up before they left.Thank you again A1!!

    Had ZERO clue where to turn to when we experienced extensive roof with hail damage. A1 was highly recommended. The recommendations hit the nail on the head - from beginning to end the service was PERFECT. They came out quick and assessed … More - even put up some tarps for us to make sure we had everything covered. Discussed pricing and selection. Gave us a no nonsense quote with a warranty, they even handled calls with our insurance and adjusters. They went over what the construction would entail with no hidden surprises - it was really a PERFECT experience. We can’t recommend them enough and we TREMENDOUSLY APPRECIATE their team and the work they did for us. ***** if I could give them 10 *’s I would!
