"Highly recommend Hennessey Roofing. They were professional, fast, and efficient in replacing our roof and did a thorough cleanup afterwards. We were especially impressed with their representative named Donny, who was honest, friendly, and down to earth. He was very knowledgeable about roofing materials and working with insurance companies. Donny excelled at explaining the process, was always available, and patiently answered all our questions. Five stars all the way!"

"My roof failed inspection and was rejected by Regional. My roof has multiple exposures everywhere and needs replaced. Additionally, they bolted metal bolts into all the siding on my house and then used a tar like substance and spray painted it. I was told they would pay to repair. All the siding needs replaced where the house meets the roof. They damaged a chair and my wood flooring inside when they did skylights. This happened in November and it’s almost March. There’s been a lot of radio silence along with blaming his subcontractor. Communication has been difficult. Scott has even tried to shame me that “I don’t seem to care that he’s out all of this money!” Contact me if you want the inspection report, photos, and every piece of correspondence with this company. If you screw up, you make it right immediately. That’s called integrity. I expected nothing less than integrity and it didn’t happen and it’s not happening now. After about a month of no contact, I sent him a $4,300 estimate for the siding repairs. All of the sudden he’s telling me in an email that he’s getting his subcontractor’s insurance involved in his response to my email. He told me the subcontractor’s insurance has to come see the damage and if I touch it by finally getting a proper roof installed and the siding fixed then they won’t take care of it. What??? I’m ready to get my roof redone with another company as it’s cold in my house from the exposed attic and there could be water damage now as he’s never once even offered any sort of temporary solution until this got fixed! He’s telling me this to now delay getting my home fixed when he knew about this since November and tomorrow is March 1st. It definitely doesn’t sound right. I never signed a contract with his subcontractor. If anyone wants to see photos, the reports or correspondence with this company email me: dawn.jack @live.com I definitely didn’t deserve to be put into this nightmare. Beware."

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