Advantages of Slate Roofs

As we already mentioned, a slate roof is very attractive both up close and from a distance. Even to the unschooled eye, it will be clear that your house sports a quality roof. Additionally, slate is extremely durable, and it will last many years—sometimes even spanning decades. It is also valued for its fire-resistance because it is a natural material that usually will not burn. Because it is a natural product, it is also an environmentally friendly roofing option.

Slate Roof Considerations

While they are both beautiful and durable, slate roofs come with a price. Slate is an expensive material that can be tricky to work with. Should you decide to go with a slate roof, it’s important that you have professional roofers, like us. Natural slate needs trained experts to fit it accurately and ensure pieces of the costly material are not broken or wasted. Additionally, in the rare instances when a well-installed slate roof needs repair, it will be costly in terms of labor and the price of the repair materials.



Finally, slate is a heavy material, and a house requires extra roof support when it has slate roofing. This can add to the cost if it is a viable option for your home. Be sure to have an expert help you determine if your house is ready to support all that extra weight.
