Types of Slate Roofs We Install
Natural
Nothing says lifelong like a well-built slate roof. It is great for any area prone to wildfire because slate is 100% fireproof. Not to mention that a slate roof offers a classic beauty to any building. Before installing a natural slate roof, you need to ensure your home can handle the weight. If your home can’t hold the weight, your home may be able to be retrofitted with the assistance of a structural engineer.
Synthetic
Synthetic slate has the same iconic style as a stone slate, but at a fraction of the cost and weight. Traditional slate has to be built onto a reinforced frame since it can weigh anywhere from 800 to 1500 pounds per square foot. On the other hand, synthetic slate only weighs a measly 273 pounds per square foot. This weight reduction makes it far faster to install and also less expensive.
The Pros and Cons of Slate Roofing
When making your decision about the type of roofing you prefer, there will be pros and cons. It’s best to know what to expect.
Pros of Slate Roofing
- Durable: Probably the most durable roofing material money can buy. A new stone slate roof will last for generations.
- Home-value: Because of its durability, longevity, and beauty, a slate roof will add significant value to your home. It’s one of the best materials you can put on your house, and that gets reflected in the appraisal of your property.
- Beauty: Nothing says class and style like a slate roof!
Cons of Slate Roofing
- Expensive: Quality comes at a price—slate is no exception! While synthetic slates cost less than natural stone, it’s still five times the cost of luxury asphalt shingles.
- Heavyweight: Traditional stone slate is tough to install because of its weight. This requires special equipment and expert precision from your roofer for proper installation.

My experience with Okc Roofers was terrific. I called them out for a roof inspection. My roof was over 20 years old. We called the insurance to do an inspection, and they denied my claim. Insurance kept telling me that there was no damage … More and that they would not cover the roof. Eric Aultz assured me this is the process it sometimes takes and that there are steps you can take when you disagree with the insurance's initial assessment. After about three weeks dealing with the insurance to get them back out, Eric got my entire roof, gutters, and shed replaced. I have to admit I didn’t think it was going to happen. It was losing faith. Eric kept sharing, he felt confident about the process. Once the paperwork was back, we realized that my house decking was out of code. Okc Roofers, the team at Okc Roofers, got my insurance to pay for the Re-deck and all code items.When installing the roof, they were very thorough and clean. They Re-decked and reroofed my home in one day. Left the property looking almost as good as when they showed up.I had a portion of my gutters around the Pergola. That was really strange. They were able to get my gutters up and fix the trouble location no problem.Overall, just an outstanding experience with the OKC roofers every person that I met was a delight to me to talk to them on a regular basis I would have, and would definitely refer them to anybody!

From day one, Owen has been amazing with providing great customer service and has been so quick to respond and very helpful with every part of the roofing installation process. He even helped tremendously working directly with the insurance … More company when the insurance company was trying to be difficult. His team did a great job at installing our roof and we are SO happy with the quality and color of the shingles. Gave our whole house a face lift! We have an older house, so our chimney pipes were tarnished and aged. We weren’t aware that the roofers spray paint the chimney pipes to match the shingles which is great if you want that, I personally may just have odd taste and liked the old antiqued pipe more lol. But Owen did a fantastic job at offering to paint it differently and make sure I was happy with the finished product!The team also did a great job at clean up! They even got old shingle pieces and what not out of our bushes and took the time to make it look very nice afterwards. Just as any roof installation, every so often even with great cleanup, some nails can get missed. We unfortunately had a few flat tires afterwards, but again- Owen and the team did everything in their power to make things right, and we are very thankful for a company that cares so much about their customers! We highly recommend them and think you’ll be very happy with using them!
