"Flash Roofing truly puts the customer first. We worked through our home insurance to get a new roof installed after some hail damage. We also had solar panels being installed around the same time. There were a variety of challenges faced with both the solar panel and insurance companies - and I had no idea how to work around those issues. But Flash Roofing, and Felipe, worked tirelessly with the solar panel and insurance companies to get the job done. Felipe went above and beyond for us, to help make the process as smooth as possible. And of course, the final product looks amazing. We could tell Felipe is an expert at what he does. I absolutely recommend these guys for your next roofing project. Thank you Flash Roofing!"

"After that storm last year our home sustained significant hail damage that our insurance originally denied. I called Advanced Exteriors for a second opinion and Sean Tillotson came to our home to assess the damage. Not only was our roof damaged but we had gutter, paint, and windows damaged. Sean was able to resubmit everything back to insurance and everything got paid. They did an excellent job restoring our home. Thank you! I would highly recommend!"

"Our experience replacing our homes roof and gutters with Heartland Construction was excellent. The communication was very responsive and thorough, as I had a lot of questions on the estimate, insurance options, roof materials, and the whole process. I walked around the roof after, and found the roof, flashing, and overall work to be quite impressive. Little things like covering all exposed nail heads with silicone was nice to see. Also, the work crews cleaned up my yard better than expected. Heartland was very responsive when I showed them some slight damage to my front porch rail, from wind knocking over the roofing crews ladder, and they sent a repair guy who fixed it. Thank you Heartland team for great service and professionalism."

"I had a great experience with Level Up Roofing LLC and would highly recommend them to anyone needing roofing services or a full roof replacement. From the very beginning, they were professional, responsive, and easy to communicate with. They took the time to explain the condition of the roof, what needed to be replaced, and why. I never felt pressured, and everything was laid out clearly before the roofing work started. The crew arrived on time, worked efficiently, and showed real attention to detail throughout the roof replacement process. What stood out to me most was how respectful they were of the property. They kept the work area clean and made sure everything was picked up once the job was done. The finished roof looks amazing and feels solid and well-built. If you’re looking for a dependable roofing company that delivers quality work and great service, Level Up Roofing LLC is a company you can trust for roofing and roof replacement needs."

"Urban Exteriors saved the day after a hail storm. They did an amazing job on our roof, gutters, siding, deck and paint. Their coordination with our insurance was top notch. I am not sure how we would have made it through that process without them! They design work on our new and improved deck was extraordinary and we will recommend them to everyone we know. Thank you!!"

"Pat and his team were very responsive and completed my roof in one day when the rest of the neighborhood took two days. The workers cleaned everything up before leaving and the gutter guys replaced my gutters to my satisfaction. (they even came back and extended a gutter that I wanted) My roof past inspection with out and issues. PRQ were very considerate of my neighbors, even asking them if there was any garbage or complaints they may have. I would use PRQ again if I needed any work done on my house/roof."

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Lafayette, CO

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.
