"I’m not a part of, nor do I know anyone prior to meeting Mr. Roman Shklyar at Sunset Roofing LLC. Let me say this: I never take the time to write reviews, but I’m compelled to write this: #1. Absolutely, hands down number one in customer service! Roman’s communication, and follow through is superb! What a pleasure it was dealing with him on my roofing project! I didn’t meet his crew, but they all did a great job on the roof! #2 Roman was very knowledgeable, courteous, and straight forward. I was under promised and over delivered! He quoted me three weeks and the job was completed in less than two weeks from our initial meeting! Yes they had a time slot open up, good weather was a factor I’m sure, but he called me and said “we can come and do the roof earlier than quoted is that ok ?” #3 No surprises! I was quoted and billed the same dollar amount! They did a complete tear off, installed a new roof on my home and also replaced a missing piece of fascia. The house looks great! #4 When we were talking about the job, he took the time and educated me about the choices between metal and shingles! I highly recommend Sunset Roofing LLC. If you need roof work done! Mark A. Pellicane- Geneseo, NY"

"We had our roof completely replaced and we feel very fortunate to have met Joe from Buffalo’s Best Roofing to walk us through the work they would do for us. He helped us select a beautiful shingle to match our existing siding. From start to finish we couldn’t be happier. Thank you to the crew at Buffalo’s Best Roofing."

"Trevor Brown was great at removing a hefty snow pack from my roof. He was able to get the job done within a day of my speaking with him. Very thorough and careful, checking in with me during the project to make sure any concerns were addressed. He did exactly what I needed, and cleaned up afterwards. Reasonable pricing, honest and diligent. I highly recommend Precision Renovations."

"Beginning of project (A+): They reached out rather quickly and scheduled appointment. Matt came out to our house and explained the services, costs and timing. Matt recommended that we file a claim with insurance company due to extensive wind damage on the roof and offered to meet with insurance company's inspector. I'm truly grateful for his guidance and time to meet with us because the insurance company ended up covering the full roof. Middle of project (B): Nick reached out to us to schedule the full roof replacement and we only had to wait 2 weeks. Super fast! Up to now, it was smooth sailing. The morning of installation, there was a mix up and a different project manager showed up to the site. We finally figured out that he was at the wrong house and he politely left the property after handing out another company's business card to everyone. Not a big deal but if we had a project manage/supervisor show up with the crew, I wouldn't have to deal with this awkward situation as a homeowner. The crew was great and worked hard all day long to finish the job the same day. Fantastic! Upon inspecting the property after the job completion, I noticed that a large branch on my Japanese Maple Tree was broken along with 3 other bushes, most likely due to having the tarp over it for material disposal. Not a big deal until I reached out to Matt and he sent me Nick's phone #. I didn't even know Nick was the project manager/supervisor. I thought he was just the employee who scheduled installations. I reached out to Nick to report the damages but had no response. End of project (C): There was no follow up as far as when they were picking up the dumpster and other materials left on the driveway. I reached out to Nick and the dumpster and materials were picked up the next day. Up to this point, there was no contact about payment until a week later and I informed the person on the phone that I had some concerns about the broken plants. She said an employee would come by to pick up check and address damages. Unfortunately, I don't remember his name but he introduced himself as a Stellar employee and the person who would inspect the roof work. I addressed the damages and he checked the roof from the ground. Considering he was not the project manager/supervisor who should've come to the house instead, he was a good listener as I explained my concern about the broken plants but he couldn't offer any solution. I think he was just the person available at that time who they sent to pick up check. And who checks on the roof work without getting up on the roof? The person who they sent to collect check only! Nick should've been the one to inspect the work. In a nutshell, I'm thankful for Stellar's initial guidance through the insurance claims process and eagerness to complete the job. I just wish there was more supervision and follow-through once the job started and ended. I usually don't leave reviews but they offered a great discount if I completed one as they take pride on their high & honest ratings."

"Excellent job. The guys did a thorough job on the estimate, identifying a number of issues with the roof and soffits and fascia. They showed up on time, worked efficiently and kept me informed of their progress. They cleaned up after each day of work. Charges seemed reasonable for the amount of work done. I would highly recommend this crew."

"We shopped and spoke with many "facade restoration experts" before choosing to work with High Tech and we are so glad we did our research. Shaiful was by far the most knowledgeable contractor we spoke with and made us feel confident that he was capable of solving our issues.  When it was clear that there was no saving our original cornice, he offered up more than one suitable way forward. We decide to let his crew re-create the original piece from stone. The work they did left us with a beautiful and artistic facade the functions well in collecting rain water from the roof. The crew was respectful, clean and on time. They went above and beyond all of our expectations in touching up every minor detail so that the whole front of the house was left looking brand new. We could not be happier. Our home looks better than we could have imagined. I recommend High Tech Construction with no hesitation.

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Albion, NY

A slate roof features thin tiles of natural stone installed over a solid deck and underlayment. Formed under intense heat and pressure, slate is exceptionally durable and delivers a distinctive, high-end look. Because the material weighs far more than asphalt, most homes need added structural support before installation. 

While upfront costs are higher and routine inspections are a must, many homeowners choose slate for its unmatched longevity and curb appeal.

Slate stands out for its 50- to 200-year life span, low maintenance, and classic aesthetic. It’s fire-resistant, energy-efficient, and often boosts resale value. 

On the flip side, slate runs far more per square foot than asphalt, weighs up to four times as much, and demands a contractor who specializes in the material. Tiles can crack on impact, and repairs cost more because the work is slow and precise. If your budget and structure can handle it, slate delivers top-tier performance for generations.

Natural and synthetic slate aim for a premium, stone-like appearance, whereas asphalt focuses on affordability. Real slate runs $10 to $30 per square foot installed and lasts up to 200 years; synthetic slate costs $10 to $15 and tops out at 50 to 100 years. 

Standard asphalt averages $3 to $8 per square foot and needs replacement every 20 to 30 years. If you want the slate look without the full price tag—or extra roof weight—synthetic is a solid middle ground.

With routine inspections and prompt repairs, a natural slate roof can last well beyond 100 years; some hard-slate installations reach the 200-year mark. Soft slate falls in the 50- to 125-year range, and synthetic products last 50 to 100 years. 

Remember, flashing, fasteners, and the underlying structure may need attention sooner than the stone itself. Severe hail or fallen limbs can also shorten life span, so schedule periodic checkups with a slate-qualified roofer.

If you plan to stay in your home long term—or want a standout selling point—slate delivers strong value. Although installation costs are high, owners often recoup 60% to 70% at resale and enjoy lower replacement cycles than asphalt. The stone’s durability, energy efficiency, and timeless curb appeal also appeal to eco-conscious buyers because fewer roofs end up in landfills. Just be sure your framing can handle the weight and that you budget for occasional specialty repairs.

Skip the DIY climb if you have a slate roof. Slate may be tough against the weather, but a single misplaced step can crack a tile and create a leak path. The surface also turns slick when wet, upping the risk of injury. Professional crews use staging and hook ladders that spread weight across multiple slates, protecting both the roof and the worker. To inspect or repair slate, call a roofer who specializes in the material.
