"Sam and team did a great job acting quickly after our tornado damage. Fixed the roof, including all framing and other needs, and installed roof nicely. We had a rain interruption which caused a leak but he took care of it all. Sure, Sam isn't the cheapest in town but it's a great roof and he's a stand-up guy."

"Steve was AMAZING from start to finish. The quality of materials used were top notch, and exactly what he said I would get! Ran into a few issues (unseen) with my roof along the way. Steve took pictures and showed me. Gave me options on how to fix it, then took care of it right away.The crew was very professional, you couldn't even tell they were there after they left. Highly recommend!"

"We had an excellent experience. The owner, Wade, was prompt and responsive and clearly had a depth of experience in roofing. He was honest about our options, not trying to upsell, and his bid was excellent. Wade even included more for the same amount when an additional feature was added. The roof looks fantastic and we haven't had any problems."

"Rep. checked entire system. He found several wires not connected properly and fixed this. He also made recommendations regarding the attachment of the panels to the rood that would provide more stability and leakproofing. The representative appeared to know what he was doing - much better than others, including the representative who was engaged by the roofer (who replaced our rood due to hail damage) to disconnect/connect the panels."

"Monster Home Services did a great job. They replaced some gutters and downspouts for me, then cleaned my gutters, handrails, garage, and garage gutters. Great work. I would give them an A+! They even gave me a recommendation of another pro to take care of some other work that I need to have done."

"Jonathan is amazing! He can do it all! Not only did he shave my Formica cabinets to ensure my new refrigerator fit, he torn down my old balcony and rebuilt a new one for my home. His work is only matched by his exceptional customer service! I highly recommend him and have already passed along his information to a couple of friends who are looking for home repair services."

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in College Grove, TN

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.
