"SPU GC & Roofing did an excellent job. Steve was a pleasure to work with. He explained the process in full detail. He answered all our questions and addressed any concerns. In addition to the replacing the roof he installed solatube (skylights). This helped lighten the house. His crew was very professional and meticulous. The roof looks great. My parents loved the work and they too hired SPU to replace their roof. We continue to recommend SPU to family and friends."

"It was kind of an emergency for me as squirrels had eaten a hole in my roof. Also my existing roof, two layers of shingles, needed to be replaced although I wanted to wait until summer 2020. I got an estimate from another roofer about two days prior but their prices were too high. I needed this done ASAP because of the hole and it was November. The weather was about to get too cold to get it done. I called Tom at Buk roofing. He came out that day and gave me an estimate. Great price for what I wanted done. He was pretty booked and said he would try to get it done by Thanksgiving, I called him November 6 2019. Tom is a roofer with a heart because he called me the next day and said he and his crew would be out Saturday 11/10/2019. They arrived a 7:00 am and were done a little after dark. He and his crew got it done and walked all around my property for clean up. These guys were great and I would definitely hire again."

"I had a very positive experience with this roofing company when we needed several roofing issues addressed. Our flat roof had developed leaks, visible deterioration, and other signs of roof damage, so we contacted them to find out whether repair would be enough or if we needed a complete roof replacement. The team carried out a detailed inspection and explained their findings clearly. They recommended repairing the areas that could be restored while replacing the sections that were too damaged. The flat roof repair and roof replacement work were both completed professionally. I was particularly impressed with the preparation involved. The crew checked the roof surface carefully, addressed underlying issues, and made sure the new materials were installed properly. They also paid attention to drainage and other areas that can cause problems with flat roofs."

"Miguel's Roofing and Masonry were very easy to work with. They did a great job at our place, replacing a very long seamless gutter, sealing several glass blocks in the roof, and correcting some masonry work as well (that they brought up as a potential issue in the future). With heavy rains there was water leaking into the house and that is fixed now! Very happy overall with them and Sunny was great to work with."

"[Your Name] Spencer,Mitch and Francisco at M and M Roofing Company are an awesome team. I am writing to express my sincere gratitude and satisfaction following the recent installation of my rooftop deck by your team. From our initial consultation, it was clear that your company values customer input and works diligently to meet budgetary constraints without compromising quality. You listened to my concerns with great attention, and your proactive approach to problem-solving truly made a difference during the project. I was particularly impressed by how efficiently the work was completed. The entire deck was built within a week, and it surpassed my expectations in both aesthetics and functionality. The attention to detail and craftsmanship is evident, and I absolutely love the final result. Thank you once again for your outstanding service and dedication. I would gladly recommend M and M Roofing Company to anyone in need of roofing or deck solutions. Warm regards, Nicole"

"I had Roof-to-Deck Restorations clean and stain my wooden deck this spring. I have used them previously and have always been happy with the results. The work is excellent and they have never left a mess. They are very easy to work with as all I have to do is clear the deck of all furniture and send them a check. They do all the rest and I dont have to be home when the work is done. They performed the service in two sessions. One to clean the deck and one to stain it. They have to schedule around weather so the two sessions were about two weeks apart. When they were done they left a bottle of extra stain to remedy tough spots but I have never needed to use it. Overall they perform a good service for reasonable cost. I will use them again.

"John and Mike are outstanding professionals. John was always responsive, taking my calls and addressing all of my questions with great attention. He offered a competitive price for a new roof and ensured the project was completed ahead of schedule. Mike played a key role in providing a detailed scope of work, and the team delivered on the project as promised. They handled various tasks, including tuck pointing on the side of the house, masonry work during the roofing process, and the roof installation itself. I greatly appreciate John and Mike's excellent communication and their unwavering professionalism throughout the entire project."

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