The architectural versatility of slate, in combination with its durable, low maintenance and fire-resistant qualities, makes it a top quality roofing material of unmatched value.

Slate quarried for roofing stock is of dense, sound rock, exceedingly tough and durable. It is practically non-absorptive, absolutely fire and waterproof, resistant to climatic changes, with absolutely no disintegration. Slate roofs have lasted a century, giving a minimum cost per year, in contrast to other types of manufactured roofing which must be re-roofed three or four times within this period. Slate colors, sizes, and texture afford many architectural effects, contributing to the appearance and beauty of any building.
