Roofing Slate Range

Durable and distinctive, vintage original roofs of natural slate can still be seen on many stately older homes, especially in the Northeastern U.S.

This low-maintenance, virtually indestructible material can endure for more than 100 years, and natural slate remains available for new or replacement projects.

However, slate is expensive — and heavy. For replacing a roof of a different material, it is essential to ensure that structural support is adequate to withstand the weight of slate.

Synthetic materials that approach the look of natural slate are viable alternatives for a lighter-weight, less expensive replacement for an existing slate roof.
