"NIGHTMARE!! Buyer beware!! Do not use Bath Planet St. Charles, MO or Peoria, IL same owner. Believe me, I’m doing you a favor and saving you time and money. Where do I even start? First of all, they will say anything to get you to sign the paperwork. And I mean anything, including guaranteeing it to be done by a certain date if you sign today. We were not going to get it done this early but due to my upcoming hip replacement and their guarantee that it would be done before that surgery date, we signed. UGH! Well, mistakes started right away, including getting our phone number wrong and even though we called the office several times to correct, told everyone person that came out, they continued to get it wrong. I thought, it’s ok people makes mistakes but little did I know it was just the beginning. Starting with the guys leaving my gate open and my dog getting out and having to pay $85 to get her from animal control. She was missing for hours!!!! Now I have to say, they felt bad and tried looking for her and due to me not able to drive, gave me a ride to animal control to pick her up and even offered to pay half. So I thought ok, this is a mess but they are trying to make it right. Little did I know this was just the beginning. From making a mess, breaking a yard sign, the worker having long arguments with their significant other on the phone while working (awkward) they began their work promising to be done in two days. Well, first day looked promising although the guy told me that what I was told about covering the tile behind my toilet was not going to happen. I was bothered and when I said I cancelled my drywall guy, he offered to do it for me “on the side” while the toilet was out. He seemed to want to help and said he would take care of it. Against my better judgement I agreed. I also found out that first day that this guy had a family emergency and that he would have to finish the next day because he would be gone the rest of the week. Ok understandable. The second day, I get a text that some parts are not in. After no one coming by 1pm, I started to get concerned so I called the office and I asked what time the parts will be coming in. The woman stated that the parts probably wouldn’t be until later. I asked if the guy doesn’t get done, could they guarantee someone else to come out the next day to finish. She stated absolutely not, we cannot guarantee and she stated they do not guarantee it done by my surgery. I was not happy and made it known and she started arguing with me. So the guy texts that he will be there and it will be done. He gets here like 430-500pm doesn’t leave until 930pm. And didn’t finish the shower and did a terrible job on the drywall. Oh, the shower worked but there were no shelves, the floor pan had no texture and one of the shower heads was installed in the middle of the wall. Yes the middle!!! I was furious. It was not done and my bathroom looked horrible!! Of course, the project manager was nice and listened and kept promising to make it right. It took weeks and several no shows and me and my husband calling and calling (and the whole time I’m recovering from TOTAL HIP REPLACEMENT) until finally a different guy came out and finished the shower but he would not touch the drywall. So it took a month of dealing with them to get it done AND I had to hire another guy to correct the drywall. When we asked for a small discount to cover drywall correction expense and the fact they were not finished with install by promised date, we were told, “no. The shower worked, didn’t it?” Seriously?!! I wasn’t promised that the water would be coming out of the shower (in the middle of the wall) I was promised that they would be done before my surgery or at least installed correctly! So if you like being strung along, hearing false promises, no return phone calls, unprofessional behavior from staff to installers, leaving your house messier than when they came in, breaking your yard stuff, losing your dog, then these are the guys for you."

Looking For A Roofing Company in St. Louis, MO? For three generations our family has been in the building and roofing contractor business. My grandfather helped engineer and build portable bridges for the U.S. Army in Europe during World War II. In 1947 he used this incomparable experience to start his own business. My dad followed in his footsteps, and I have been doing it my whole life. When you choose John Beal Roofing Contractor to do your project, you are choosing a company with over 60 years of pride and tradition. You have my personal guarantee that we will treat you fairly and honestly. And, as always, I promise you the very best job for your money.

"In a nutshell…It took 8 months to finish the process. Issues started the day they were supposed to show up to meet the insurance adjuster and didn’t. Continued customer service failures to the point that I had documented everything and sent an 8 page letter outlining the issues in hopes to get things moving. My insurance and I worked together to get a manager, who was more interested in talking about the final payment vs my issues , to finally submit the needed documents. The last email from the manager was rude and contradicted an email that was sent by someone else in the company just a minute before."

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in East Alton, IL

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.
