"Awesome Contractor — Fair Pricing & Quality Workmanship Geno's Siding & Roofing Company replaced my gable vent today. It was the first time that I used this company, and I will absolutely use them again. I am retired, so I watched the entire project and was amazed at how skilled and meticulous the worker (actually the owner) was. The next time I encounter something that I can’t personally fix, I am calling Geno's Siding & Roofing Company at 215-971-6292. Howard (Howie) Walters Langhorne, PA"

"Summit was very responsive and did a fantastic job! Dan came out quickly and provided an estimate as promised. He was very honest and no pressure. He said our roof didn't need to be done this year--that it still had a couple years life left. However, our gazebo roof, which was in bad shape needed replacing. They scheduled the job quickly. The crew came and did an excellent job! The gazebo roof looks great and surrounding area was left as clean as it was found. We will be doing our main roof in the next year or so and for sure we will use Summit again! Highly recommend."

"We needed to replace the existing basement windows to our home. The existing windows were metal framed, very old, and provided no insulation. So I called Thermal Quality in early August, 2015 and spoke with someone who took down all of the information and then had a representative Mike contact me within 1 day after calling.  Mike was able to come out to my house to look at the existing windows, offer window replacement options, and an estimate within a few days.  He was very professional - he provided me a folder with warranty information, window information, how the work would be done, and a full estimate.  He left his card and said to call with any questions.  Also, their estimate was very reasonable (especially compared to another competitor who was a lot higher).  I then called Mike back within a few days to move ahead with the work.  I was very impressed that he actually came back out in person so that I could sign the contract for the work and answer additional questions.  I was also very impressed when I got a call from Mike over the Labor Day weekend to inform me that my windows were ready only about 2 weeks after being ordered instead of the 4-6 week estimate given and their willingness to install the windows on Labor Day.  Tony came out and worked diligently to install the windows for us on the holiday and was very prompt, professional and courteous.  He did an excellent job and are new windows look great!  I would highly recommend Thermal Quality due to their promptness and professionalism.

"From now on I'll have my roof like my gutters inspected/maintenanced annually to protect my largest investment asset▬my home. Russian/ Ukrainians in my Montgomery County/Greater Phila area specialize in roofing. I already gratefully reviewed Precision several times, but their distance is unprofitable for them on small jobs for my Lansdale neighbors & me. **ANGIES LIST: RESTORE PARAGRAPH #2 SPACE HERE, THAT YOUR WEBSITE MERGED INTO ONE BIG UNREADABLE LUMP THOUGH TYPED ONLY ON YOUR WEBSITE!** So Greg Primak's GP Home Improvements is now our expert roofing maintainer (who also checks gutters) though Greg is distant too but Doylestown not as far and energetic motivated entrepreneur Greg accommodatingly fits us into his schedule even emergencies, valuing referrals. **ANGIES LIST: RESTORE PARAGRAPH #3 SPACE HERE, THAT YOUR WEBSITE MERGED INTO ONE BIG UNREADABLE LUMP THOUGH TYPED ONLY ON YOUR WEBSITE!** I find Greg takes great pride in using quality materials and in his expertise guiding his assistant in skilled work, swift but caringly thorough and knowledgeably communicates including photographs and informing us a range of options when possible, that he is motivated to negotiate a competitive price appreciating online reviews and referrals."

"Greg and his team were excellent to work with. At our first meeting, Greg arrived on time and was very patient in answering each and every one of our endless questions very throughly as he examined the exterior of the house. It impressed us that during that examination he pointed out items we had never considered and made very helpful recommendations (i.e. Your garage doors are angled at the top corners and block the garage door windows - would you want them reframed squarely when we replace the trim work? You don't have any trim where your porch ceiling meets the brick, would you want that - it would look cleaner?). He also noticed that since we had replaced our windows prior to having the siding done, they hadn't flashed them properly and we should consider addressing that, and discussed the various siding options available and the pros and cons of each. Greg was timely in getting a quote to us, pricing out a variety of options and all were reasonable (especially flashing the windows). After approving certain options and the quote, Greg's communication was also timely and consistent. Upon the start of our job, his crew showed up on time, was very courteous, and cleaned up each day. They had to replace several areas of plywood and properly flashed our windows, in addition to replacing the siding. They framed everything from spigots to light fixture boxes and trimmed everything else nicely too. Our job did get behind schedule, but that was due to Mother Nature's decision to bring rain every single day. What impressed us was that Greg's crew showed up anyway, did what they could, and even worked in the rain to make sure the house was appropriately protected if siding had been removed and would be exposed to the weather. At the end of the job, we noticed a few items that didn't seem quite right (i.e. our bay window was trimmed slightly different on either side as two different crew members had worked on it). Upon notifying Greg of those items, he had his team out the next day and they addressed each one. It's now been a year since our siding was replaced. We opted for the insulated vinyl siding with the wider plank and not only does it look fantastic, we have been thrilled with its performance. We've gone from being one of the least energy efficient homes in our neighborhood to one of the most, and all we changed was the siding. No more drafty outlets, the house holds its heat, and after coming home from the Easter break on an 80 degree day, we thought we would be walking into a sauna. Instead our house was still a comfortable 71. That would not have been the case with our old aluminum siding. The only minor negative is that we were told it will be years until we have to worry about replacing any of the solar seal they used on the trim edges, but it is turning from clear to a yellowish, although maybe that is to be expected - it is holding up otherwise so far. All in all, we are very pleased with our siding, Greg, and his team. Greg is very knowledgable, he and his crew did everything they said they would, and we would definitely use them again and recommend them to others."

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Bristol, 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.
