"Total waste of $3000. Job looked like it was done by toddlers. Again. I asked them to fix the botched original attempt. Didn't expect much, they met my expectations. "

"It went extremely well: team was courteous, professional and efficient. Cleaned up at the end of each day, paid attention to the property and delivered excellent results. New roof looks stunning, and this one is hopefully not leaking, unlike the 30-year old roof they replaced!"

"We just completed the installation of a 72 panel solar system and two Tesla power walls. By residential standards this was a very big job and frankly we had a lot of concern going into the process. Fortunately, we chose Alive Soar to do the work and they were AMAZING! Since buying this property we have worked with quite a few contractors, service providers and material vendors and none has come close to matching the performance of Alive Solar. We are more than accustomed to people telling us they would be here on a certain date and then not showing up We have had our fill of people messing up jobs and not ever fixing them. We have been plagued by people who promised the moon, took our money and then made us miserable. NONE of that with Alive Solar. They did everything exactly when they said they would, at the cost that we agreed to and without any drama or upset. Adam and his team are true professionals and I hereby give them my very highest rating and recommendation."

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Dulzura, CA

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.
