"I had an outstanding experience with Voyager Roofing and Restoration. From start to finish, their service was top-notch. Josh came out to provide a quick estimate, and I was pleased to find that their pricing was very competitive compared to other companies. Trevor was a fantastic communicator throughout the entire process, keeping me informed and answering all my questions promptly. The crew was incredibly efficient and completed the job much faster than I expected. What really impressed me was their attention to detail during the cleanup. They made sure to leave the area spotless, and I didn't find a single old nail around the house. Overall, I highly recommend Voyager Roofing and Restoration for their excellent service, competitive pricing, and professional team. Thank you for making this such a smooth and stress-free experience!"

"After an initial hiccup in communication, I was very pleased with the work by All Around Roofing. Price was fair, the job was started and completed as scheduled. Sometime before the job was scheduled to begin we suffered a big windstorm that tore many of the old shingles off the roof. The company sent out a crew on short notice and tarped the damaged area, thereby avoiding water damage to the house. I'm well satisfied and would definitely recommend them to others."

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Princeville, HI

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.
