LIFESPAN100+ yr
FIRE RATINGClass A
TIMELINE4–6 weeks

A real slate roof is a multi-generational investment. We install Vermont, Pennsylvania, and Spanish slate for heritage properties and clients who want the last roof they will ever own.

What it requires

  • Roof framing rated for 10+ lbs/sqft dead load.
  • Copper or stainless flashing (never galvanized).
  • Specialty trained installers — slate cannot be nailed like asphalt.

Timeline

Our slate projects run 4–6 weeks. Every property is different — call (424) 624-7020 for a quote.
