"Hennessey Roofing did an OUTSTANDING job on our roof and skylight project! Professional and Stress-Free is their motto and this proved to be absolutely true in our case … couldn’t ask for better. Our Project Lead and Sales Manager, Donny Brown, is a consummate professional and the absolute BEST. From the time he did our estimate, through completion of our project, Donny explained the entire process clearly, kept us fully informed at all times, gave us the benefit of his extensive knowledge and experience, expertly led the installation team, and oversaw the execution of an overall EXCEPTIONAL project. The installation team was also Outstanding … totally professional and extremely courteous. They did an amazing job with the installation, as well as the clean up afterward. We now have a beautiful new roof and skylight that should last for many years to come. We HIGHLY recommend Hennessey Roofing to anyone! R&B Pagan"

"Our experience with this company has been stellar! From our initial contact with Cannon, our salesperson, the wonderfully helpful scheduler, Kiersten, and AJ, the project manager and his crew for the installation and closing, everyone was friendly and professional. As a former Virginia Class A contractor who has done this kind of work and understands the challenges, I can tell you that these people are spectacular. I wish I would have had these employees working for me back when I was a builder. Any fool can climb up on a roof and nail down shingles, but this construction crew was prompt to arrive on time, got to work immediately, and stripped and replaced twenty-three squares of shingles in one day while doing an outstanding job, with no flaws or defects that I could find. While the price was not cheap, it was reasonable for the work we contracted and the 50-year warranty on the roof. In my experience, when you hire out a job, there are three factors: cost, quality, and timeliness, and you get to pick which two you want. What we asked and paid for was top-quality materials and workmanship in a timely manner for a reasonable price, and that is what we received. If you are looking for something cheap, this is not the company for you. If you are looking for exceptional professionalism, top-of-the-line quality, at a reasonable price point, I strongly encourage you to give them a call. I suspect you will not be disappointed."

"Excellent. Three weeks after the storm Wyndhill was loading our roof with supplies. The following week the workers replaced the roof and did it in just one day. They arrived at 6:30 am and left at 7 pm. They were fast but still did a very nice job. They used quality materials and even gave us a few extra attic vents at no additional cost. They sent the guys who replaced our gutters and downspouts just 2 days after the roof was replaced and then replaced the spark arrestor caps another few days after that. We are please with all of the work."

"Gary, was very helpful and pointed me on the right direction after I had discussed my concerns. Had he been able to help me I would have gladly hired him. My system ended up being under warranty and he suggested I contact the manufacture as to not void my warranty."

"This year my husband and I sold our house in Colorado Springs. Because of extensive hail damage, we needed to replace the roof. Our realtor with LIV Sotheby referred us to Hennessey Roofing who had replaced his roof under similar circumstances. The sales rep from Hennesseyâ s was helpful, knowledgeable, and professional. He was also willing to offer a detailed explanation of the insurance reimbursement maze and direct us to a contact to repair the fence damaged by a 90-mph-wind storm. The Hennessey crew was polite and respectful of the property, even placing tarps around the entire house perimeter to catch debris from the old roofâ s removal. They also finished the job in one day, additionally replacing the old vent system. If one must replace a roof, these are the people to use."

"Manuel went above and beyond. He met me at my home between jobs 2 hours after my initial call to place a bid on my gutter installation. He got up on my roof to assess his recommendation for the installation required. He explained to me what needed to be done for proper drainage leading to the drain spouts. He was very professional, kind, and extremely knowledgeable in his services rendered. His bid for the job was far better than previous bids I had recieved $! Thinking it might be a few days before the job would be performed. He advised me that he could fit me in his schedule the following day!! From the time of initial contact by phone to the job completion was less than 24 hours!! Manuel told me he was new to the Denver area and working on growing his business and clientele. To anyone seeking gutter services or installation - I strongly recommend contacting Manuel for your first bid. You will be very pleased you took my advise. Initially I was thinking I wanted to install aluminum gutters and he strongly recommended metal gutters. I took his advise as he provided all materials for the job. I was extremely pleased after the job was completed and highly recommend Economy Roofing & Gutters. Miguel"

"It went well...we got 3 different bids on the job and O'Hara Brothers Roofing was the lowest. In addition, they could start sooner than TV he others. They did a good job so we just called them for the shed and the repair. Kevin O'Hara was personable and took the time to explain clearly to us what they would do on the job."

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