Slate Roofing

Slate roofing is a popular option for many homes. Slate shingles are made from the rock of the same name, and are quite strong and durable. A roofing contractor can attach each shingle with a single nail, making it relatively simple to install.

One notable advantage of slates is that it is resistant to water absorption. It is also less likely to crack when frozen. These traits make it a great choice for houses in areas that need reroofing due to inclement weather.

Many people also think that slate roofing can improve the look of a house. The use of stone creates an impression of streamlined strength in the roof. Though slate is normally gray, it can be painted in other colors at the homeowner’s discretion.
