"Fantastic follow through and excellent job on my gutters. They gave the least expensive quote. When they finished my job I gave their name to a friend who was unhappy with the company she was using, putting her gutters put on, and switched to using Northwest Roofing, she also was very pleased with the job they did."

"Stringfield Roofing did a great job at a competitive price. Owner Dillon and his employees were always respectfully receptive if I had a concern and would address any issues promptly. Months later in winter when lights indoors are on for longer periods my skylight was collecting an incredible number of flies and moths. I called Dillon to see if he could check to be sure the skylight was fitting correctly post-roof replacement. He came, no questions asked, inspected it, found it loose and fixed it. He even replaced worn weatherstripping (normal wear and tear unrelated to roofing job) at no expense to me. Then he cleaned out the bugs and everything looked great again. Dillon and his employees always friendly and cheerful. Delightful to work with. Small company makes doing an excellent job and customer service top priorities."

"John owns and manages an outstanding painting service company. We solicited five bids and Optimum was the lowest (including our Angies List discount). John worked with my wife and I to coordinate a schedule that was optimum (no pun intended) for our travel schedule to Black Butte. The quality of the painting (which included some minor reconstruction of our chimney structure on our roof) was outstanding. Every part of the house was checked and touched up after the inititial paint application. The PPG Manor House paint has a lifetime warranty. John's kept me appraised of progress on a real time basis and made his scheduled completion interim and final completion times aand dates. John's team was exteremely professional in communicating their objectives and process. Optimum is a very well managed organization that delivered a high quality exterior paint job in an efficient and timely manner."

"Larrabie was fantastic. Quick bid and added me to their busy schedule right away. They showed up on-time and were extremely professional. Their work was exceptional and even came in under the estimate. I would hire Larrabie again without hesitation and will continue to recommend their services to anyone who is in need of roof work."

"Rocket Construction replaced our shaker roof with a composite roof. We met with Matt and went through all of our choices and once we were ready to move forward they got us on the schedule. The crew that he sent to do the work was so friendly and hard working. We enjoyed chatting a bit with them each day. They worked diligently each day and got the job done quickly. They arrived promptly each morning and picked up each evening before heading out. Matt came by the day after everything was finished up to check the work himself and to see if we had any questions or concerns and to be sure we were satisfied. He is a genuinely nice guy who cares about his customer service. We would highly recommend them to others, and in fact already have!

"I was looking for someone to repair a leak where my patio cover met the wall of my garage. I had several estimates but chose this company because they were the only ones to "find" a soft spot in the rest of my roof that "needed" the plywood replaced. Their estimate was $1000 more than anyone else but I figured that was because of the soft spot repair. A $760 down payment was required to start the work. The contractors arrived, proceeded with the work, told me the soft spot was fine and didn't need to be replaced, and finished the next day. Nobody came to inspect the contractors work to make sure all was done. When the bill arrived, I went up to check the work and noticed that not everything was done and it still leaked. I sent a text message to the company. No response. I sent an email the next day and their representative came to my house and confirmed that not all the work was done and they would send the contractors out again,...but it would required another down payment of $1140 this time, even though it wasn't my fault their contractors didn't finish the job. The contractor showed up unexpectedly a week later; nobody had told me they would be arriving that day, and finished the job. The company only took $105 off the final invoice for not needing to repair the soft spot. I could've saved $1000 with someone else and probably had an easier time of it. FYI, this company only guarantees their repair work for 30 days. EDIT 04/24/2023: was offered a $500 refund to remove my reviews or change them to 5 stars. I canâ t figure out how to remove this one so I changed it to 5 stars. I need the cash to find someone else to fix the leak."

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Bend, OR

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.
