"I am a fairly accomplished do it yourself. Siding, window replacement and kitchens however Iâ m advanced in years and I draw the line at roofing. I am very particular as to how things are done, things have to be right or not at all. I found JI Roofing to share in my standards and in some ways they even exceeded them. There were not sel cited based upon price but they did prove to be the best value. They even went the extra mile (as I would) by eliminating a hump in the roof due to the house structure as originally built. Their attention to detail and quality and pride in workmanship were exceptional. At the end of a long day they completely replaced my roof and everything weather related up there and than took extreme care to clean the entire worksite better than they found it. I highly recommend JI Roofing you wonâ t be sorry"

"When I needed a new roof, I called Jake. He handled everything from beginning to end. I received an estimate immediately, and a crew was on site in no time. The crew was neat, fast, and thorough. When they were done, you couldn't even tell someone was there...other than the amazing looking new roof! I highly recommend Jake and his team!"

"We have a two story home in Patchogue that had a leak that resulted in water in the walls of our attached garage. We could not locate the cause of the leak. We contacted Exterior Team Home Services who quickly located the source of the leak which required us to replace the front roofing of our house. It was done very quickly at a fair price. We were also impressed on how they made sure the old roofing material did not get into our front lawn or plants. They were meticulous in the way they treated our property. A job well done."

"Domenick and Bill were amazing understood our needs, replaced all wood on roof and facia boards, had to sister a rafter, did a beautiful copper cutout on our brick chimney, ( their signature design ) added vents, to keep out attic cool. Took the time to address minor issues like painting our second chimney to match the color scheme of roof tiles, replaced gutters and leaders and added mesh covers. His gutters installer did over and above the call, cane back to clean leaves etc from the gutters after the storm to install mesh covers. The clean up was very important to me and they cleaned up constantly keeping ahead of it. So no nails and other debris left behind. When Domenick came to give an estimate I felt sure he was the one to do the job, I’m glad I chose D&S and I highly recommend them. As I will recommend them to all my friends and neighbors."

"Mike did an excellent job replacing my roof. His presentation was very clear and professional, his price was fair, he answered all of our questions honestly and completely and he also gave us a lifetime warranty on the work. The entire job was completed in 1 day and his guys went out their way to clean every inch of our property at the end of the day. Overall it was a great experience and everything went smooth so we would highly recommend this company to anyone who needs roof work done. 5 STARS!!!"

"From beginning to end- fantastic communication, reasonable pricing and professional quality. I am beyond happy with the new stucco siding they installed in June. As a first time homeowner, Revolve helped me realize there were so many inefficiencies in how my house was built and I look forward to trusting them with future projects to make this house my home. Thank you again!!!"

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Port Jefferson, NY

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.
