4 Reasons You’ll Love Your New Slate Roof

March 16, 2021 //  by hallmark

Whether you’re having your home built, or you’re upgrading the family home with a new roof, you might be pondering having a slate roof installed. It’s a good decision, but if you still aren’t sure slate is right for you, we thought we’d share 4 reasons you’ll love your new slate roof.

#1 – Slate Roofs are Awesome Because They’re Fireproof

Maybe you’re not the nervous Nellie type who spends sleepless nights worrying about what would happen if somehow your home caught on fire. But lightning strikes, electrical problems, and unattended open flames happen. Having a slate roof installed provides the peace of mind that comes from knowing the roof over your head is absolutely fireproof. This means a greater degree of safety for your family and pets.

#2 – Slate Roofs are Awesome Because They’re Planet Friendly

Concerned about climate change? You’re not alone. One of the factors driving slate roof installation rates to record highs is the fact that slate is an all-natural, long lasting product. This is because it’s literally rock. Asphalt roofing shingles involve a lot of fossil fuels, because asphalt itself is a form of petroleum. This is also why asphalt shingles burn so hot, so fast – see point #1.

#3 – Slate Roofs are Awesome Because They’re Extremely Durable

On average, an asphalt shingle roof will last a homeowner between twenty and fifty years. Some metal roofing options will last up to a hundred years. But having a slate roof installed means you will have a roof that lasts for generations. Because of stone’s durability, weather resistance, and fire proof qualities, it means a slate roof will stand the test of time.

#4: Slate Roofs are Awesome Because They’re Luxurious and Gorgeous

If you’re looking for the perfect gorgeous roof to top your high-end home, it’s hard to beat a slate roof. Slate tiles are a lovely blue-gray. It’s a classy, luxurious look that’s perfect for the nicer North Shore home. In many neighborhoods including Woburn and Wilmington, you’ll see slate roofs installed on many homes.
