The Pros and Cons of Slate Roofing

Pros of Synthetic Slate Roofing

Appearance: Slate looks wonderful and is an all-natural material. The dark stone look is a feature of many homes, allowing your home to stand out and look unique.

Energy-Efficient & Environmentally Friendly: Being naturally dark in color, slate absorbs heat when it’s hot outside and releases it when the weather cools off, saving you money on your energy bills and helping to offset the initial cost.

Fire Resistant: Unlike many other roofing materials like asphalt and cedar, slate tiles themselves are completely fireproof, making them the premier fire-resistant option.

Longevity: A slate roof is cost-effective, in that it can last anywhere from 60 to 150 years, provided the initial installation pricing is within your budget.

Cons of Synthetic Slate Roofing

Find a Contractor That Knows Slate: When hiring a contractor, Be sure to get references and ask about a contractor’s experience with slate roofs. Unfortunately, many try to install them with limited knowledge due to the high-profit margins.

Fragile: Beware of walking around on slate roofs, slate is extremely fragile and one misstep can cause thousands of dollars of damage in broken tiles!

Weight: Because slate roofing tiles can weigh over 1,000 pounds per square, you’ll need to ensure your home or business structure is sound before installing them.

Slate Roof FAQs

This cost will ultimately depend on the size of your home and the slope of your roof, as well as the style and colors you choose. Contact us for a free estimate to evaluate your slate options.

As with many of our products, a 50-year warranty is available in addition to the 10-year workmanship warranty to ensure that you get the most out of your roof. Speak to our roofing specialists to ask about the specific types of synthetic slate we use and we would be happy to share more about the warranty information.

Synthetic slate shingles are lighter and less expensive than natural slate shingles. While both are environmentally friendly roofing materials, synthetic slate shingles are easier to transport and install because of their weight and uniform size. They’re less fragile than natural slate, too.

I just want to say how much I appreciate Chris remaining in contact with me and checking in with me often about the status of my roof repair. We are going through a state program and the process has been less than exciting. He showed up very quickly for the estimate and continues to show interest in performing and completing the job. He has also shown an interest in the program we are utilizing so that he may be able to help others down the line. I appreciate him and his patience throughout this whole process and will recommend him to others!

Eugene from Shull Roofing installed our new gutters today. The gutters look great and he and his crew did an amazing job. They arrived on time and finished in 7 hours. Eugene ensured all the old guttering was removed and they did an excellent job of clean-up.
