Slate tile shingles are a timeless and classic roofing product. These not only add charm, but are a superior material for their longevity. Slate roofing tiles are made from natural stone and are relatively environmentally friendly. Slate is also a fire resistant material. Slate, however is not for everyone. Slate roofing tiles are expensive and installation is difficult. Adding to this, slate is relatively fragile even though it has a long lifespan.
Because of slate’s appeal and drawbacks, many roofing product manufacturers have developed faux-slate concrete roofing tile options. Contact Lou Jezdimir Roofing if you are interested in slate roofing tiles or slate-finish concrete roofing tiles. We offer free estimates.
