"I couldn't be more pleased with the outstanding service provided by J. Cwanger. From the very first call regarding a roof leak, their team was professional, responsive, and incredibly helpful. Their initial inspection and diagnosis were thorough, and they provided clear explanations of the necessary repairs. Throughout the process, communication was seamless, even with the added complexity of coordinating with my loan approval. I truly appreciated their patient and understanding approach, as they never pressured me for a sale and consistently kept me informed about scheduling. Once my loan was approved, J. Cwanger's team was on-site within days. The roof replacement was completed in a single day, a testament to their efficiency and skill. During the work, they identified and addressed unforeseen issues with the underlying plywood, demonstrating their commitment to thoroughness and quality. What truly impressed me was their follow-up after a significant rainstorm. The team proactively came to inspect the roof the next morning, ensuring everything was functioning as expected. This level of dedication and customer care is rare and greatly appreciated. J. Cwanger came highly recommended, and I now understand why. Their professionalism, efficiency, and commitment to customer satisfaction are truly exceptional. I wholeheartedly recommend them for any roofing needs."

"I had my roof installed four years ago. They did an excellent job. The workers were pleasant and efficient. I had to call again for a problem with my downspout just the other day. They responded quickly. Again, the workman was very pleasant. I would definitely recommend this company to others!!"

"Our roof was in major need of repair due simply to weathering and age. After receiving several outrageous repair quotes, I remembered seeing a large sign on a wall advertising Union Roofers. I figured that I had nothing to lose, so I might as well give them a call. Patrick from Union Roofers came to our home to survey the extent of the damage and to provide a free estimate of all repairs needed. He was very professional and thorough with his assessment; he explained exactly what needed to be done to restore integrity and soundness to my roof. The day after Christmas, I received a courtesy call alerting me that they were on their way . They immediately began working upon arrival. They took pictures before, during, and after the repair work. I had the opportunity to meet their boss Frank, who made it a point to be on site to meet with me, the client, to review our contract, pricing and to set my mind at ease. Frank was super kind and professional. More importantly, there were no surprises in terms of price. Everything that he said needed to done was also quoted by the other outrageously priced roofers. Union Roofers has displayed an unparalleled level of professionalism coupled quality work and all at an affordable price. If you are in need of roof work, and you are looking for company that exhibits quality, integrity, professionalism and fair pricing, I highly and wholeheartedly recommend Union Roofers. They restored my roof and I am a happy camper. E Edwards"

"
Christmas Day we had a leak I called and he answered and came out the next day to repair my roof. The owner was professional and polite and made my roof a priority!  We joked about how santa ruined my roof! I was amazed how fast the repair took and how  quick he came out over a holiday. We are on a fixed income and procrastinating to get our roof redone. I definitely called the right company because they made it way more affordable than we anticipated.

"It went very well.  I received two other estimates - one of which was to replace my gutters.  Ivan said they just needed a cleaning.  And he was right.  Got the job done, gutters are working just fine, and I saved a lot of money.  Thank you!

"Joe showed me before and after pictures of my roof. I could see where the repairs were made. The after pictures really looked great. Adelphia had to wait a couple of days before they could do the job because of the rain. They were very courteous, professional and knowledgeable about roofing. I am very pleased. Joe said to let him know if I had any problems and he would fix it. I know repairs don't last forever. I plan on getting a complete roof in about a 12 to 18 months. I will definitely call Adelphia Roofing to do the job."

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Oaklyn, 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.
