For roofing, slate is one of the most durable and long-lasting materials you can find anywhere. A slate roof is certain to add charm and beauty to any home. Since slate is one of the strongest materials out there, it retains its original appeal far longer than most other roofing materials. Most importantly, it needs little maintenance and lasts a lifetime. At Ridge Valley Exteriors, we offer trusted and proven tile and slate roofing services in the region with a 100% client satisfaction guarantee.
A metamorphic rock, slate has a distinctive grey, black, or bluish hue. Due to its ability to boost the curb appeal along with its excellent fire resistance and environmentally friendly properties, it is one of the most sought-after roofing options on the market.
One of the best things about tile and slate roofing is its incredibly long lifespan. If installed and maintained properly, a slate roof can even last more than two centuries. So, when you choose slate roofing for your home, you won’t have to go for another roof replacement project in your lifetime. Slate is a natural material that is mined from various quarries located throughout the country. Since it is not artificially made, no two slate pieces look the same.
While all types of slate roofing systems are highly durable and look stunning, you’ll need to consider its grade before installing it on your roof. All slate materials can be broadly classified into three categories depending on their longevity. Grade S1, Grade S2, and Grade S3. They have a lifespan of over 75 years, 40-75 years, and 20-40 years respectively. This means, if you’re looking for a really long-lasting roofing system for your home, you should go for Grade S1. On the other hand, if you’re looking for a more affordable option in slate roofing, both S2 and S3 grades, with a slightly shorter lifespan, are good choices.
