We would like to take a moment to tell you about the past projects and work that we are capable of offering you as a new client. Handy Services Inc. has been in business since 2008 and offers a wide verity of services. We developed our company in a way that can meet most any residential or commercial property needs. We saw a need for clients to have someone that you can call for just about any type of service or repair when needed. When we started out we were managing apartments for landlords and we saw a big problem when we would have to call six different companies to get repairs completed at these properties. So we decided to offer these services as part of our contracts to the property owners. After a bit of time we were able to stream line the processes and make it more affordable to the client. This was done by extensive training, and having the tools and equipment available when needed. In 2011 we branched out to the homeowner and started offering these same services on a one on one basis. During the same time frame we started getting requests from small business owners to offer them the maintenance and repairs at their businesses as well. Over the years we have built and remodeled convenience store, offices and retail locations. We currently service stores like Dunham`s sporting goods, The Kids Place and more. We pride ourselves on have quality employees with clean background records and drug screens. We are a Registered Federal Contractor, and Osha Certified. In addition to our PA Contractor License and Home inspection Certification, we hold a mold abatement license that we utilize for mold testing and abatement. We offer everything form cleaning your home or business to replacing your roof and most everything in between.

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Berwick, PA

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.
