"ExteriorMax provides exceptional work at a reasonable price. Their staff is communicative and easy to work with - explaining the work that needs to be done every step of the way. The crew on site for the roof installation was on time, courteous, and professional. The final product was beautiful, craftsmanship was excellent, and (importantly) cleanup was very well done. Replacing a roof can be a stressful project for a homeowner, but ExteriorMax made the process simple and ensured I felt well taken care of. I highly recommend ExteriorMax to anyone looking for a quality roof job done by exceptional people!"

"They did an excellent job. I have a shining brand new roof and it is all because of them. I was working at home when one of their men rang my doorbell and told me that they were working in the neighborhood. He was very polite and wanted to know if they could check my roof for damage because they were doing free inspections for the neighbors of the house where they were replacing the roof. Also, he said that he could see that my roof might have wind damage. I really didn't have time to watch them crawling on my roof and I let him know that but he told me that they didn't even have to get on the roof to check it. They could just fly a drone over and take pictures. It would take about 15 minutes and they did not need me to even be there. They just needed my approval. And I would get a free roof inspection out of it. If it turned out that there was damage to the roof, their experts would see it in the drone photos. If there was damage, they even promised to help me with my insurance company. I figured that I had nothing to lose. So I told them to go ahead and forgot about it. They emailed me the roof inspection a day later. Along with it came a series of photos of my roof. Apparently, their experts saw something in the drone photos because they contacted me and wanted to go a step further and send men up on the roof to check out what appeared to be damage that they saw in the photos. Again, I did not even have to be there for this inspection either. They sent a roof expert up and he confirmed that there was sufficient damage to talk to my insurance. I'd heard this kind of thing before and was not a believer but I let them contact and talk to my insurance which is USAA. I don't know if you know USAA but they are very good at this stuff and would never have let this go any further if there wasn't a real problem. USAA sent out an inspector and Eastern Exteriors had one of their men come and talk to him. Then they took him up on the roof and showed him the damage. Again, I didn't have to even be there for the process. They dealt with USAA and showed them the damage. USAA agreed with their roofing experts about the damage to the roof and sent me a decision to that fact. Then they sent me the money to replace the roof. Again, all I did was receive the letter from USAA and call Eastern Exteriors who scheduled a day to replace my roof. Before they started, they must have checked the yard thoroughly. Because even though I had spent a few minutes preparing for this beforehand. I had accidently left a rather expensive piece of equipment in an hard to get to place in the yard. It was out of sight but might have been hit by some of the debris from the roof. They really checked the worksite closely before they started because they found it and moved it out of the way. On the job, they were extremely professional. They showed up early and did the work quickly and cleanly. In less than a day, they removed my old roof and replaced it with a new one. They were very good about their work. My wife and I were working in the house the whole time and did not hear a thing! If I hadn't seen the new roof I wouldn't have believed that they were working up there. They were that quiet. After they finished replacing the roof, they cleaned up after themselves thoroughly. They not only cleaned up all debris from the job but ran magnets over the yard to ensure that no nails got left behind. They even checked the driveway which is quite a distance from the roof but I was especially worried about because of the possibility of getting a nail in a car tire. The super service continued after the job. They helped me with my insurance company the whole way. Even calling them when the check for the work was delayed because of the problems we are having with the mail right now. I really cannot say enough about John and Chris Moye other than to say if or when they come to your door, listen to them. My wife thought it was a scam and tried to get me to blow them off when they first came around but they sounded knowledgeable and just wanted to fly a drone over my house for a few minutes. Now she admits that we would have missed a golden opportunity if I hadn't listened to them. And we would have."

"Jorge, Jorge Jr. and their crew are a VERY professional outfit. After taking several estimates from the top-rated Angie's listed contractors in my area, I decided to go with George's Painting based not only on price(his estimate was about the median of all) but based on the very friendly, responsive and knowledgeable Jorge. He came onsite to do the estimate, and made me feel very confident in his crew's ability to do the job.
He impressed me with his knowledge of the process of cleaning and staining fences and decks.  Every question I had for him, he patiently answered. His group also did some minor carpentry work--replacing damaged fence boards and 4x4 deck posts-- Both performed to perfection. Jorge also stood out by mentioning that he preferred to use premium products so the job would last.
His crew was onsite promptly when promised (8:30 meant 8:30, not sometime around 10) Each crew member was courteous and professional. They worked quickly and did an excellent job.
Any time I had to contact Jorge (as we were working on the final scope of work, etc..) he responded in a VERY timely manner.
The end product is the BEST looking back yard in my town-home area.
Thanks to all the guys at George's Painting Inc! We will be calling again when it's time to do more painting.

"Dan Wold of Roof Guy Inc. was fantastic. Overall I would say this was one of the most positive experiences I have EVER had with someone working on my house!! He is friendly, prompt, and really interested in helping you out, not just getting the job done. The estimate was very reasonable, partly because he was willing to let us (the homeowners) do a lot of the finishing work -- which a lot of larger firms won't do. He brought two more workmen who were equally competent and pleasant to work with. They worked with me to determine and adjust the best location for the skylight, and got it put in that day. Highly recommended."

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Hagerstown, MD

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.
