"I needed a new roof and new gutters for my house. I tried several other local roofing companies but either they did not show up for an estimate or after giving me an estimate they did not show up to do the work. With the Fall Season coming on, I needed someone to help me out before the Winter came. I checked Angie's list and called "Home Exteriors - The Window, Siding and Roofing Experts." One of their Sales Representatives, Gary, came to my house, wrote up a detailed Installment Contract with final price and he assured me his Roofing and Gutter Crews would be out to take care of my roof. I must admit, I had some doubts about them showing up, due the poor experiences I had with prior contractors. I received a call several weeks later letting me know that the Roofing Crew would start work on the coming Monday. I took some time off during lunch on that Monday to drive by my house to see how the work was going. I did not stop to speak with anyone, I just wanted to see how they were progressing. When I got to my house, I was amazed at the number of guys that were working and how efficient and organized they were. True professionals that really worked well together. I went back to work and when I came home later in the evening, the equipment and supplies they needed to finish the job were neatly organized and the entire yard was cleaned up. When I came home on Tuesday, their work was done. The roof and flashing looked perfect and my entire property was cleaned up, no debris anywhere. The technicians that installed the gutters came several days later. They took off the old gutters and installed seamless gutters in a couple of hours. The work was done quickly, everything looks even, no leaks, perfect!!! I would highly recommend this company for anyone looking for a replacement roof. From start to finish everything was top notch."

"I would highly recommend MAP Construction to anyone that asked. I had them do a full roof replacement for me. They were very affordable, extremely responsive and fit me in to their schedule sooner than any other contractor. Matt was very professional and took the time to answer all of my questions. He made sure I was informed and happy before, during and after the work. I've had other roofs replaced and this contractor exceeded my expectations."

"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!!!!"

"Pioneer Roofing tore off two layers of old roofing and installed my beautiful new roof today. They were professional, on time and clean. Marty and his crew answered any questions I had. They were very careful around all of my landscaping which I appreciated very much. They did an exceptional job of cleaning up afterwards and did the entire job in one day! The price I was quoted- which I thought was great price (much cheaper than other quotes) is the price I paid. I would highly recommend this company! Thanks so much Marty and your crew!"

"Very good to work with them. Quoting process was quick and easy. Very good communication by phone or email. Took 2 days to complete project, as expected. Very polite and professional crew. Good clean up and no damage to landscaping. Too bad I won't need a new roof again for another 23 years."

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