"I had Geno replace my gutters & install gutter guards in July. I waited to review the work until now so I could determine how the gutters handled the falling leaves. I am very pleased with the job Geno did. It took him & his crew about 4 hours to do the job & did an excellent clean up job when they left. I have had no clogged gutters & the wind blows off the leaves. I had 3 estimates for the job. His reviews were excellent & I felt his gutter guard was very good & he came in with the lowest bid. I recommended Geno to a friend, who also was pleased with his work. I will certainly recommend him to others & will use him in the future if I need additional roofing or siding repairs."

"Surf and Turf Roofing was professional, courteous, and reasonable and performed quality work. The workers arrived on time replaced damaged roof from storms and vented the roof, and installed new shingles and skylights. They were very quick to address any questions we had, I would use them again (but our roof shouldn't need to be replaced for 50yrs! Lol)"

"Allen was the first person I met, he was the owner of ATCO and had just merged with Carl's Fencing and Decking as of 1/1/2015. ATCO was a separate Home Improvement business for over 30 years. Allen came out and measured on a Friday laid out the project with high quality materials, and had an estimate the next day when I met with him at 8:00am on a Saturday. I used this proposal as my basis for 3 additional quotes. All were very close in price except for one that was $12,000 lower. When we actually got down to comparing apples to Apples this quote now became higher and I had no confidence that that contractor knew what he was doing, he low balled me from the start and I would have been sorry. Carl's / ATCO did a high quality excellent job and was on time, worked though rain every day. I couldn't believe haw fast the siding part of the job was completed. 4 days! that included removing the old cedar siding, removing a chimney and patching the roof, flashing all windows and doors, drip caps on all windows and doors, house wrap, foam baker board the cedar impressions siding, trim, fascia and soffits. Following Monday had the gutters and leaders in in about 1 1/2 hours. The project manager was Eric Wilson, THE BEST, he was on the job site a few times every day. Went over the job with me, and the crew and fixed things he didn't like that I didn't even notice. I will definitely use them again when the time comes to replace my roof and back deck. They also replaced my storm door and outside shower with a new vinyl shower enclosure.
The outside shower, front steps and railing took much longer to schedule due to the fact that that division was extremely busy with all the houses being raised after hurricane Sandy. I told Eric I would be down for vacation from July 3- to july12 and wanted thes rest of the work finished before the 4th of July, I was having a houseful of company. Craig was now the project manager for this part of the job. Schedules were shuffled and my shower was in on July 3rd. I wanted the steps finished while I was on vacation and at the house that week again CARL's worked their schedule to fit me in before the end of the week. I was told it would be done that Saturday, Friday morning a supply truck pulled up with a load of decking and trim. I called Carl's to let them know and about an hour later Craig showed up and said he would get a crew out that afternoon. At 4:15pm a crew of 5 people plus Craig the project manager were there and finished the job at about 8:30pm on a very hot Friday night. Great crew and everyone worked with my timeline the best they could.

"I am very impressed with ANB Constructions. They did a complete rip off and replacement of my old roof, installed new gutters, and completely rebuilt and replaced my garage roof. Everything was done on time, and at a very reasonable price. Clean up after they were finished was perfect. I would recommend them to anyone."

"I hired Five Star Roof Cleaning to clean the roof of my Mom’s rancher in Skillman, NJ. I’m very pleased with the work Paul and his company did! Mom’s house is going to be put up for sale in the Spring, and I wanted it to have more curb appeal by getting rid of those ugly black mold stripes and up and down the roof. Also, a few roof areas had green moss patches growing on it (which is harmful to the asphalt roofing tiles). All these problem areas were taken care of! Five Star Roof Cleaning came with all the equipment (hoses, ladders, safety equipment, etc.) and cleaning chemicals needed – all that I needed to provide was a water hose connection. I especially appreciate Paul’s concern for a quality job. The first scheduled date for the project had to be postponed because there was slight snow on part of the roof. Paul said he didn’t want to clean a roof with “frozen” roof tiles because they are too rigid and might break/chip during the cleaning process. Bravo for his concern! Next, I hired him for roof cleaning, but he also cleaned the gutters (not only with both an air blower and power washing, but also simply bending over and hand-picking out the clumps of leaves stuck underneath the gutters / asphalt tiles). He was also concerned about the cleaning chemicals that were sprayed on the roof that might “accidentally” clean other house surfaces and took steps to circumvent that from happening (you’d think that “accidentally” cleaning other areas would be desirable, but unfortunately it wouldn’t clean everything evenly and in the end, would make the cleaning project look cockeyed). Regarding the price, the amount he quoted was the price I paid (despite a slight increase in the scope of the project). I had gotten another quote from a different roof cleaning firm for double the price and found them very slimeball’ish with their aggressive sales tactics and avoiding answering simple questions. I would absolutely recommend Paul and Five Star Roof Cleaning to others!"

"I'm so glad we found A2Z on Angi. A2Z did such a nice job! We had capping done around our large arch window (outside, above our front door) and they also installed new shutters. They exceeded our expectations. We were amazed by the quality workmanship. The job was reasonably priced, too. We will definitely hire them, again."

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Hightstown, NJ

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.
