Frequently Asked Questions

How long does slate roofing last?

Natural slate can last 75-100+ years when properly installed, while synthetic slate typically carries a 50-year warranty. Both options significantly outlast traditional roofing materials.

Is my home’s structure suitable for slate roofing?

While natural slate requires additional structural support due to its weight, synthetic slate can be installed on most homes without structural modifications. We’ll assess your home’s suitability during consultation.

What maintenance does slate roofing require?

Natural slate needs minimal maintenance beyond periodic inspections. Synthetic slate requires similar basic maintenance to other roofing materials. Both systems should be inspected annually for optimal performance.
