"Mitch, the president of the company, came out and measured three times to make sure the correct size door was ordered. The installer called me the week before to find an agreeable time for me to do the installation, as well as the night before to make sure the time still worked for me. The door actually came in earlier than expected by a couple of weeks. The installer was prompt and cleaned up after he was done. The door is excellent quality and I couldn't have been more pleased. Another thing to keep in mind they offered to come out and measure after I got home from work as well as actually install it on a Saturday so I wouldn't have to take off from work."

"I chose Ivan's company after lots of research on how to best solve my problems with gutters clogging. My house is an average 2 story colonial style and is surrounded on most sides by lots of trees. The gutters would clog up once a month and required me going on roof and manually cleaning out. I was growing sick of this chore and feared for my safety. Also, during a recent heavy set of rainfall episodes, the gutters were clogged and rain water poured like a waterfall over the one side of my home and resulted in some water in basement. After that, I decided to search angies list and found Ivan's company. I then research the Gutterglove product and decided to go with Ivan after meeting him for estimate. He explained everything perfectly. The above cost breakdown was $2850 for gutterglove pro gutter guards installed with gutter adjustments and an extra $300 for the larger 3 x 4 inch downspouts. The work was performed about 2 weeks after initial estimate and took about 1 full day to complete. After some heavy rainfall, I can say gutters seem to be functioning perfectly and my mind is now at ease. New downspouts look great and the gutterguards are not visible unless on ladder. The product itself is very heavy duty reinforced and the screen is small enough to keep everything out.

"After much research and several estimates I decided to hire Paragon Home Remodeling Grp. to redo my roof. They use a high quality product and are very reliable. There was a team of workers who worked endlessly for two and a half days. They kept me informed as to the progress and took pictures of areas that needed my attention. Seeing the great job that was getting done I requested to have other work done at the same time. I had four new 2 story pillars replaced and a new gutter system installed. There was never a sales push to get more work done and no rush for payment. I also have to say their price was very reasonable compared to estimates I received. Paragon will be my go to company when I need work done."

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Oxford, PA

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.
