Slate Roofing and Repair FAQs

Have more questions? Don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re happy to help.

What’s the life expectancy of a slate roof?

Slate often lasts 80–100 years, sometimes well over a century. Unlike tile, it doesn’t break down over time.

How much does an average slate roof cost?

Prices vary with size, type of slate, and complexity. Contact us for a project-specific quote.

How often should a slate roof be replaced?

Slate is replaced at the end of its lifespan—typically 60–80 years, often much longer.

Does a slate roof increase home value?

Yes. Slate boosts home value thanks to durability, beauty, and fire resistance. Studies show even shingle and metal roofs raise value (Journal of Light Construction). Slate, as a premium option, should add even more.

Do slate roofs need maintenance?

Yes. Annual inspections and replacing broken tiles or flashing keep your roof in shape and extend its life.

How do you repair a slate roof?

Repairs need specialized tools and knowledge. We blend new slate with old and use copper or lead flashing for watertight results. Poorly done work—or even walking on slate—can cause serious damage.

Costs depend on the repair size and scope. Contact us for a quote. All repairs include a 5-year workmanship warranty.
