"We had a tree fall on our house during the recent storms. We got the tree removed and found 5 holes in our roof. We called everyone and they were all a week out. With rain coming we were panicking, until I spoke to Tom. Tom had his crew here within 4 hours to patch up our roof, even though it was getting dark. What great service. Thanks Tom and the crew!!"

"Trifecta Roofing and Restoration were great. They finished installing our roof yesterday and we passed the city inspection today with no issues. The new roof looks amazing! This is our second time using Trifecta Roofing and Restoration. We used them for another property few years ago. They always comes out and gives me a fair estimate. They are honest, reliable and professional. Trifecta Roofing and Restoration should be the first number to call for all roofing needs. Thank you."

"We had water leaking from an exhaust vent in our bathroom after the last storm. I called Robinson Roofing and left a message. Paul Robinson, the owner, called me back a couple of hours later. We set a rough time to meet the next day since I would be home all day. Paul sent me a text message during that time window letting me know he was on his way. He was very nice and personable. He took pictures of the vents on our roof and said all of our exhaust vents needed to be sealed (which was not surprising since it is an older home). We agreed on a price and he did the work right away. He also swept off the tree debris that had collected in the valleys of the roof and cleaned off the gutters. Just to be nice, he even swept off the front porch and drive. He took pictures of all work both before and after and showed us the pictures. He explained that all work comes with a one year guarantee and said he would email that in writing along with a receipt later that day.
We are very pleased with the work that was done. Mr. Robinson was very nice and professional. The work was fast and very affordable. If we have any other roofing issues in the future, we will definitely have the work done by Robinson Roofing.

"Very professional, friendly, and prompt service.  They took time to explain what had caused the damages to the roof and what needed to be done to prevent the damages from re-occurring.  Also, they explained the benefits of a full roof replacement vs just repairing the damaged area.

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Gravette, AR

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.
