"We just had our roof replaced by Berg, and the crew did a fantastic job. Complete tear-off of the old roof, some decking replaced, all new flashing, new vents, new attic fan. Professional crew, clean-up was thorough. Nick was our representative, he oversaw the entire project and kept us informed of what the crew was doing. I would absolutely recommend Berg Great company, great product, great installation process. We're very pleased!"

"Joe was recommended by another roofing company as "fast, reliable and reasonable price." Joe and his people did an amazing job, and complete tear off and replace of our roof. Very easy to communicate, very courteous and a pleasure to work with. His team did a great job on cleanup as well. I would definitely recommend to others."

"We recently had our roof replaced and had a very good experience with this company from start to finish. The crew was professional, punctual, and clearly very knowledgeable. You can tell they take pride in their work and know exactly what they?re doing. They also did a great job keeping the job site clean throughout the project and made sure everything was picked up and organized once the work was completed. Walter, the foreman, was great to work with. He stayed on top of everything and was always available to answer my questions. He made the whole process easy and kept things running smoothly. Overall, the entire team did an excellent job and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to have roofing work done."

"We used NextWave Construction for our new front door and storm door. From start to finish, the process could not have been better. Dave arrived at our house and went over options, walking us through the entire process. After selecting what we wanted, Dave handled HOA approval, and maintained contact with us while waiting for the door. Install was perfect. The crew was extremely professional and did a fantastic job. Dave followed up again to ensure we were happy with the outcome. I highly recommend NextWave Construction. Outstanding customer service, high quality products, and perfect installation. Not much more you could ask for in a company."

"Christos from ASI Contruction was my contact from the beginning to the end of the installation of my new roof. His crew tore off the old roof, replaced any damaged wood and shingled everything within one day. Also, the crew cleaned up any items that were in the lawn. They even used a magnet to find any stray nails that might be in the lawn. Beautiful work and highly recommend ASI"

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Montgomery, IL

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.
