"A&W representatives were very professional and provided us with a clear explanation of the damage and the options for repair. A&W worked directly with our home insurance company to verify the full cost of the roof replacement and that it would be fully covered under our insurance policy. The roof was replaced in one day. Their was a minor issue with the quality of the fascia that was replaced on one side of the house but it was resolved satisfactorily in a timely manner. I would not hesitate to recommend A&W to anyone needing roof repair work."

"Duane Atteberry came to my house to give me an estimate for roof repair.
The company's initial bid  was for $6497 for GAF Timberline architectural shingles covering a 2545 sq ft roof.
They also bid out separately $527 for GAF Timberline architectural shingles covering a sun room.
I called and requested an additional bid for a shingle upgrade to Class 4 - impact resistance.
Duane called back about a week later to discuss prices for GAF Timberline Armor Shield II shingles.

My roof was replaced in March 2016.  Mr. Duncan is very personable and professional. He and his crew were on time and ensured the area was cleaned prior to leaving. The job was completed  on time and to my surprise, he returned the next day to install some additional flashing around the fireplace.  I did not know he had concerns about it; but that's when I  was sure that I had made the right decision.  His honesty and integrity  surpasses all others that I received and estimate from.  he displayed so much patience with me and was comfortable answering any and all of my questions.  it has been raining like cats and dogs  and thanks to Patrick, I no longer have to pull out the towels and buckets!   I  would recommend him to anyone and would use him again for any other projects (large or small).

"They provided a bid promptly, when other roofers did not bother returning my calls or suggested it would be weeks. Then they worked quickly to do the work in spite of weather fronts. The bid was reasonable & they filed all insurance paperwork so that I had cash in hand to pay on completion. The workmanship was thorough and well done. And they have followed up twice in 15 months over questions. I chose this roofer because they had excellent references from friends and friends of friends who lived nearby.

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Sainte Genevieve, MO

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.
