"Very nice and professional crew. Installed roof and replaced rotted wood. Made sure past work from other company was corrected so no future issues occur. They made sure everything was cleaned up when they left. We will definitely call them for more projects in the future!"

"So let me start by saying...Thomas Evans and Homestyle Home Improvements are A-1 in my book. From the very first encounter with them, they have surpassed my expectations! Thomas's attention to detail and coming through as promised has definitely put him and the company at the top of my list. Everything from installation of the roof to clean-up afterwards and the checking to make sure we were satisfied was spot on! I definitely highly recommend Thomas and Homestyle Home Improvements. From start to finish...2 weeks and that included haggling with the insurance company!! 5 - STAR 🌟"

"The guys at Rustic Slate Roofing are reliable and skilled roofers. For my more extensive work, they showed up early and stayed until the end of the day, and came back until they were finished with the project. I had a prior contractor charge me a lot to supposedly fix my leaking flat roof (so they just don't do slate) and 2 years later, it was leaking again. Stefan from Rustic Slate said the fix was just temporary, so the flat roofed was repaired again and this time the right way. Rustic Slate has done a great job and I plan to use them for more roof work that I will need to do on my Shaker Hts house. I highly recommend!!!!"

"We replaced our roof with Pioneer Roofing. This job required the removal of our prior roof. They did an expert job - we are extremely pleased with the look and function of our new roof!!! This winter we experienced some heavy winds, snows, rains and differing temperatures. Our new roof (which included new ventilation soffits) helped keep the temperature of our older home warmer through the winter and even reduce our gas heating bill. I would seek Pioneer Roofing for work in the future."

"Excellent everything! I highly recommend them. The salesman was very knowledgeable and actually walked the roof before advising us on what would need to be done. He pointed out soft spots that would have to have replacement wood. He was prompt, friendly, and knew his product well. The crew was very courteous, hard working, and did a very impressive meticulous clean up. They protected everything that could be damaged and were very careful not to drop things onto my extensive gardens.The price was very competitive and follow up was quick."

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Avon, OH

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.
