"The installation went great and looks good. The cost was exceptional compared to the competition. Communication could be slightly improved and clean up could have been slightly more thorough, but nothing that deserves less than an A rating, just for future costumer relations. Thanks for the new roof. I highly recommend you get a quote from Smart Roofing.

"Harlow Roofing was great. Brandon was responsive and answered all my questions. I really appreciate a contractor that is on top of his communication game as well. The roof was installed when he said it was going to be and the crew were quick, courteous and clean (very important so there are no nails in the driveway)."

"We had Dennison Exterior Solutions do a roof replacement on our house. Their response to our request for the roof replacement was prompt and very professional. Scott provided a number of options and gave us estimates for all of them. The cost of the roof project was right on the estimate he provided for the option we chose. Dennison’s roofing crew did an excellent job on the old roof removal and installation of the new shingles. They protected all of the landscape during the installation and cleaned up everything after the roofing was completed. Our communication with Scott and the roofing crew was excellent before and during our roof project. We are very pleased with our new roof."

"One could not ask for a more professional office staff, Joyce, owner, Bill, and work crew headed by Kevin. I have used this company for several years now and am very pleased with the exceptional quality of work and both the company's and workers work ethic. They exceeded my high standards. Their prices are always competitive and exceptionally fair. Also, if you happen to catch one of their specials, you will get the best deal going bar none. They arrive on time and if, by chance, they are a bit behind you get a call ahead of time informing you. Their clean up is great and you will never get better quality of work. Kevin always lets me know when he is finished and asks if I want to check out their work or if there is something else that needs to be done. In my opinion, they are the best. A big thank you as always to Bill, Joyce, Kevin and the rest of the crew"

"After a tornado went through our neighborhood we were approached by a big box roofing company saying we should get our roof repaired. When insurance denied the claim the big box roofer disappeared and never replied to follow up questions. A few months later shingles fell off our roof and we requested repair by Good Roof. Aaron came out and said we should reopen our insurance claim. This difference this time is that Good Roof helped us to ensure insurance covered the damage and we were able to have our roof replaced. The end result looks great and we are appreciative of the extra time and effort Good Roof put in to ensure our satisfaction. Highly Recommended"

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Cannonsburg, MI

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.
