"Every part of our dealing with Window Nation was great. From the product quality, initial contact at Cleveland’s Home and Garden show to the sales appointment and through the install. All the reps we dealt with were informative, professional and courteous. The install of 10 windows, including a picture window that replaced 2 standard side by side windows, went without a problem. The installers were on time, worked throughout the work day, and thoroughly cleaned up before leaving. All in all a great experience and I would highly recommend them."

"If you even just wonder whether you need a new roof, give Rocky a call. Our roof is the cover on our biggest investment (except for our kids) and we’re glad we trusted it to Rock Roofing."

"Everything went very well. We sent Michael pictures of what needed to be done. He gave us a quote. We later asked him to come onsite to firm up the quote, which he did, and the price was the same. He stated he was booked some time out, but said he sometimes has cancellations. He contacted us and stated he indeed had a cancellation, so was able to start the next day. He started the work, even without a deposit, since it was short notice, and we were still away, out of town. We were trying to decide what to do for railing, and had captured quotes from supply companies for replacement aluminum or steel materials, but they seemed high. We asked Michael for his thoughts. He checked a hardware store for us, sent us pictures, and then sent us the part number/SKU's from the store. We paid the store directly, and he picked up the materials. The work is almost done, but all has gone great thus far, and we see no reason why it won't complete with great success."

"We are very happy with Jason and Sweet-It’s fixed. We hired them to install a new bathroom in our basement and it turned out great. From boring old extra storage room to completely finished turn key full bathroom we are happy with the project. Jason was very responsive to all communications (email, text, call) and communicated well throughout the project. Pricing was fair and reasonable, and timeliness to complete the project great. Jason exceeded our expectations and we would hire him again for the next project."

"Mike was great! He made an appointment to come over and explain the work and the cost. I liked him right away because he was very knowledgeable & personable. I did not feel pressured or confused with sales tactics. Within just a couple days, Mike and his team got started. Some snow and icy rain fell in the middle of the work, but they were there every possible minute working on my roof. The project was completed quickly and the finished product looks terrific! I'm going to use this company for other projects I need done, like replace the gutters, for example. If you need a reliable company to do work at your house, I highly recommend Lake Shore Seamless Gutters."

"The best thing about Nail It Down is that they are very responsive. I learned about their company at a local business fair and talked to them about my roofing needs on my garage. We talked a little bit and I got their contact information. The staff I met were very friendly. A few days later, I called the company to schedule a free quote. They called me back quickly and we arranged a time for them to come out and give us an estimate. They were on time and gave us a fair quote. I had two other local roofing companies provide quotes as well. One took a week to call me back and then their quote was twice as much. The other company came out to inspect the work that needed to be done and then they never followed up! I signed the contract with Nail It Down and they came out to work on my roof the next day! They brought out around six guys, worked quickly, and finished in just two days. They had to install new roofing due to wood rot and install new gutters. Overall, the new gutters look great and they cleaned up my driveway so well, it was like they were never there. I would highly recommend Nail It Down and even passed on their information to my dad who might also need some work done on his roof.

"Ty Crawford came out and met with my wife and I on two separate occasions. He was very pleasant, informative and thorough in his presentation and providing an estimate. He was the first source we spoke with. After meeting with several other competent and reputable service providers over the next couple weeks, we called him back, spoke further and decided to choose Shingle King to replace our roof. Ty had kept in contact twice during the couple of weeks while we looked at other potential providers. No pressure tactics, just a quick friendly phone call to see if we had made a decision yet.
His was not the lowest of the four estimates we received, but we had a comfort level speaking with him, discussing work ethic, and reviewing the project that we needed done and the quality of materials he would be using. (Each of the other providers we received estimates from also presented themselves and their services very well). There was simply a comfortable feeling, especially after signing the contract that we had made the right choice. It was a good fit for us.
We had a couple weeks wait until other projects were completed and weather had cleared before our work commenced. The roofing crew did an excellent job removing the old roof and installing the new. We had chosen to alter the color of shingles and also decided to have a Groove Vent cut into the roof and eliminating the unsightly ventilation boxes, which Ty had mentioned were too few for proper air flow. Work was promptly performed over two days. Crew members were courteous and did a fine job of cleaning up after the work was completed.
Once finished the roof looked great! The shingle color selection was spot on matching the new color theme we had chosen. We are very pleased with the work that was performed and Ty's follow-up make sure we were satisfied both with the service and quality of craftsmanship as well as the appearance of the roof.
A very good experience for us!"

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